Test 5: Communication with stackauth.com – failed

i use Chrome and notscripts, recently get a failure to authorize with stackexchange and cannot chat with a moderator anymore.

http://chat.stackexchange.com/help

Is this a problem with the recent update to Chrome?

Clearing or resetting HTML5 as suggested does not help, how to do this manually?

Fails in Incognito mode also.

How do I sort this out, thanks.

Chrome version 13.0.782.107 m

.

If I disable Notscripts, still not working.

Clean re-installed Chrome Error persists, Looked in my local storage folder and this file was in there "http_chat.stackexchange.com_0.localstorage"

SOLUTION: it appears the extension "NotScripts" is no longer compatible with the new Chrome update, even if I don't install it but do copy my old preferences file to the new installation, it causes this issue, so something notscripts stores in preferences can cause the issue.

Case Closed. .
