Redirect on Edge or Google Chrome to trovi.com - webbrowser-control

Getting Edge browser hijack to trovi.com on first invocation. Thereafter user can query for google.com and get there with no more interference. Downloaded Chrome. No Trovi at first invocation.
I checked Kaspersky, Stack Exchange, others. Nothing. I did get some other hits when I Googled it. I did not pursue further.
It's for a remote user's computer, so I wanted to be respectful of his time and give him a solution that would work the first time. Thus my hesitancy to try an unknown website served up by a Google search.
It's running Windows 11 Home.
Thanks!

selenium chrome NET BLOCKED BY CLIENT

selenium chrome If a page is not operated for a long time, for example, time.sleep 15 minutes, and then again, it can not open the web page, how to refresh the browser debugging found that it is blocked by client did not install any advertising plug-ins after this situation, if you enter the target URL in a new tab enter, it can be opened normally, who knows the reason? I don't think it has anything to do with cookies, thank you.
chromedriver version is also correct, I do not know if everyone's selenium chrome will not have this problem if the open page time.sleep longer time
***The reason for this is partly to do with the html http-equiv attribute of the target site. If the page does not change for a long time, any further execution of the url of the target site in the same tab will not be considered as "re-fetching from the server" but from the cache, which will cause a js exception. Any subsequent get requests of the xhr type will be directed to chrome-extension://invalid
The value after chrome-extension:// will be BLOCKED by chrome if it is unrecognisable, which will happen in any chrome speculation.
A not-so-good solution is to pywin32 simulate re-opening a new tab by typing in the url, but this causes some tab over-closing and handles switching exceptions, so I'm considering seeing if I can fix this from some chrome option parameter settings***
Also if I don't use selenium chrome but normal manual normal browsing of the target site, I don't manipulate the page for a long time and I don't have the above problem, not quite sure if this is an ISSUE with chrome, don't want to switch to firefox as there is too much code to change.

SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP - but only on a few select Systems

I encounter the problem when I try to access the website of my software engineering uni course. On my desktop (Win10), phone and tablet (both Android) I receive a "SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP"-Error when trying to access the site.
The error appears regardless of browser, it seems to be system-wide.
Interestingly enough I can access the site on my laptop (Win10 + Manjaro) and could also access it on my desktops Manjaro partition. I could also access it on my phone in the uni-network - but not using mobile data.
However I am not sure, whether mobile data is to blame, as I logged in with my firefox account before receiving the error. Naturally I assumed it may have something to do with my firefox-preferences, but i am using the same account on my Manjaro Systems as well as the Win10 partition of my laptop. Besides me, none of my friends, except one have this problem.
I ran the URL through multiple different SSL-Checkers and every one of them encountered problems regarding the SSL-certificates. As the problem occures in different networks I can also rule out some router-settings of my home-network being the cause. Have you encountered such an error before and is there anything I can do on my own or is this an issue I should take up with my course-instructor and ask him to take a look at his server?
As it turns out the browser plugin "HTTPS Everywhere" was causing the problem.
The error occured in different browsers without the plugin because I copy-pasted the https URL. The issue appeared on my phone because of the shared browser history, which autocompleted the URL to the https version. The plugin is not installed on my Manjaro's Firefox, which is a bit strange as I though it would be shared.
Additionally, on Manjaro, Firefox does not suggest the https version of the site for auto-completion - maybe it favors sites opened on the specific device over sites opened on different devices. Either way, it works now.

SSH timeout when running importDump.php on a Bitnami Mediawiki instance on Google Cloud server

The import seems to start out ok, showing the contents of the mediawiki in the terminal window. At some point (often around the same point in the content), the SSH terminal freezes up. Opera Browser returns an 'out of memory' message.
2 questions -
Can I just start the import and ask the server to run it regardless of the status of the terminal window on my machine (or the internet connection)?
If no to #1, what can I modify to prevent the terminal from timing out?
It could be that the cause of the problem is not the Google Cloud server or the network but a problem with the client browser being used.
A good test would be to do the same operation using another browser if possible and see how it goes. If the operation is successful then it means that it is a problem with the Opera browser itself.
Also check the memory configurations on the client machine to see if it can handle the request.
There has been reports of out of memory errors in Opera:
https://forums.opera.com/topic/17877/new-version-out-of-memory-issue
If you have tried other browsers and issue is the same then it should not be caused by the Opera browser ‘out of memory’ error.
Have you provided your Bitnami Mediawiki deployment with the correct instance specs to handle every request?
At the Google Cloud Platform click on Products & Services which is the
icon with the four bars at the top left hand corner.
On the menu go to the Compute section and hover on ‘Compute Engine’ and
then click on ‘VM Instances’ to view all your instances.
Click on your Bitnami instance to see more details.
Go to ‘Machine type’ where you can see CPU and memory allocated for the
instance.
Ensure Bitnami Mediawiki instance has a good profile to handle the request.
You can also check the instance performance while you’re doing the import and see how it behaves.
As per the documentation, running importDump.php can take quite a long time. For a large Wikipedia dump with millions of pages, it may take days, even on a fast server.

RROR – unable to acquire LMS API, content may not play properly and results may not be recorded. Please contact technical support

We are in the process of implementing Success Factors LMS, and trying to play and view SCORM compatible files exported from Adobe Captivate 8 and 9 in Success Factors LMS.
I get the message - 'ERROR – unable to acquire LMS API, content may not play properly and results may not be recorded. Please contact technical support’
I have tried SCORM versions 1.2 v3 and 2004 V2 and V4. We can view the content, however it does not track, show as complete etc.
We are also producing Scorm compliant files using Skillcast and Articulate, but we still hit the same issue, we can view the content after closing the API error window, but still does not track.
Anyone experienced this problem before? Or know of a fix?
Many thanks
Normally this issue comes up when the course is unable to get the SCORM API from the LMS...I have seen a ton of SCORM content running in Success Factors before, so I wonder if the issue is in the setup. Are you seeing any "Access Denied" type errors in the browser element inspector/developer tools? I wonder if the course just can not find/have access to the player window. If the course is launching in a new window, you may want to try launching it in the frameset. I have seen folks get around this issue by making sure the player and sco are in the same window...
If you wanted to rule out the content being the issue, you can always test your content in the SCORM Cloud's free sandbox (https://cloud.scorm.com) to make sure the course is properly asking for the API...
If you have any other questions, we would be happy to help...you can just shoot us an email at support#scorm.com.
Thank you!

The error occurs because the content is not speaking to the Learning Management System (LMS). The code that runs to initialize the session doesn't happen. There is no return "ping" from the LMS.
You will get this error when you publish in SCORM and run from your desktop, or from a web server that isn't connected to an LMS. If it occurs when you are launching from an LMS it can either mean that the SCORM API isn't configured correctly, or your content server is on a different domain (cross-domain) than your application servers.
To test, you should try launching your content in different browsers. Our system was configured in such a way that Firefox and Chrome read our content to be cross-domain issue, and threw the SCORM API error, but Internet Explorer worked just fine.
In the end, it was determined that our server configuration in tandem with our firewall and security settings read the Content server as cross-domain and we had to redeploy our content servers within the firewall.

Testing ssl HTTPS application locally with Coldfusion

I would like to test https related application on my local machine before pushing it to staging and production.
If I try to test on local system, the page just showing (in chrome it gets to the "This webpage has a redirect loop" page).
If any information could be provided that would assist me in setting this up / getting it working and testing, I would be extremely grateful . Thanks
This problem can have two angles whether this could be related to your specific browser or with your ColdFusion application:
First and foremost can you check it on Firefox or IE just to isolate if this is specific to Chrome. (As I have seen this to come on Chrome more than often)
if it works on Other Browsers:
probably Chrome is at fault. Go to settings (Options -> Under the Hood -> Content Settings -> Cookies -> Show cookies and other site data)
Enter your problem URL in search bar and it would list all related cookies.
Select "Remove all"
if it FAILS on other browsers as well:
Can you check with perhaps another test application?

If this persists, please add some more information, on how this has been set up.

If I understand your questions you should be able to use a self signed certificate on your local dev box. Once you set this up you should be able to test your site in SSL mode.
Here is one quick tutorial.
