well... not that it matters for me right now because everything seems to be working just fine since they rolled through some kind of fix about 20min or so ago ...
but
i didn't say it would be related... i said that cefhost.exe might be the problem... when i updated a couple hours ago norton instantly noticed cefhost.exe because of faulty or outdated signature ... i tried login (on that desktop pc with win10 and norton AV) without blocking the cefhost.exe and it didn't work... i tried it on same PC with blocking cefhost.exe and i was able to login...
now the (apparently) mind boggling thing...
i tried it on win11 notebook where I have McAfee AV and i wasn't able to simply block cefhost.exe so it didn't work
now what did I just say? i just concluded that the problem SEEMED TO BE ... at least on my PC and Notebook.... the cefhost.exe
so it seemed to be related to a faulty signature or something ... whatever... connected to the Chromium Embedded Framework Host Network
but as i said at the start... all seems to be fine since they updated again
