Today everything works! The installed system, the installer (#1059167)
and Debian Live (1059037). Earlier several attemps failed, it was not
just a single incident.

Should I suspect a hardware malfunction? Can you recommend some testing
program?

Best regards

Thank you very much for a constructive answer.

I have some earlier version of Debian on virtual machines and I see that
my hypothesis that the culprit is the recent upgrade was wrong. The
problem occurs already in a December version.

I will investigate first the console output for the chat site, there are some
messages which can give a hint.

When I click to select an item on the other site there is no console
output at all.

Best regards

The chat is available only for the logged customer of the Internet
provider. FYI, it is Multimedia - does it really help? On the other hand
you can pretend to be a potential customer of
https://kucharekszesc.pl/pl/ (I'm afraid the site is available only in
Polish).

Anyway a clue should be provided by the fact the both (perhaps all?)
browsers are affected. The things broke several weeks ago, perhaps after
the upgrade to 10.8.

Package: general
Severity: normal

I was angry with my Internet provider because on their site since
several weeks the chat was reported as not available. It appeared the
chat works all the time in any Windows browser.

Today I tried to order some goods by Internet, by I was unable to select
the interesting items with a click neither in Firefox nor in
Chrome. Again it appeared that it works in any Windows browser.

Please reassign as appropriate.

Best regards

Together with

it allows to circumvent the lack of NSAPI plugins.
