I'm a "
bot"
![:-o](https://morph.zone/images/smilies/shocked_2.gif)
or a "
Power User"
![:lol:](https://morph.zone/images/smilies/laugh_2.gif)
- according to
eBay UK, when I use
Wayfarer version 8.11 - so I won't, and obviously can't, use it until that issue is fixed at the very least!
I clicked to clear out my cookies, but that didn't help either. That was after I tried with several of the User Agents, even though the "Safari" one works best - well it does with v8.9, but obviously not with v8.11.
I can use Wayfarer v8.9 to access the eBay UK website - as a logged-in member, but with v8.11 it just offers this "pardon this interruption" heading, followed by the "bot" and "Power User" messages
The website
manualslib dot com - PDF manual resource is still non-functional for me even with v8.11 (and I have tried it with v8.11 as well, even though it misrepresents itself on eBay UK). In fact if you use their main page to search for a manual, let's say "Black Decker drill" then after you either press "Enter" or click on the "Search" button it just clears that input from the field and does
nothing for any input you place there with Wayfarer, either on v8.9 or v8.11. That still includes the "bot check" of reCaptcha tiled picture array question area, which you can complete as many times as you want - up to your own levels of satisfaction, but once you have gained a green 'checkmark' (tick) and it has left the green oblong to the right of the reCaptcha field for you to click on, but here again clicking on it . . . nothing happens! Other than you get more and more frustrated with it not functioning with Wayfarer.

The webpage to access to download a manual from their site at
manualslib dot com - PDF manual resource takes quite a while to load initially, though it seems to have already fully loaded, but if you look at the page loading bar/meter/gauge then it remains about half loaded for quite a while, and that's using my G5 iMac, so you have to wait for the reCaptcha feature to load, that's before you complete the picture array -
that leads nowhere !!

I also tried to download a PDF manual from
manuall co uk . . . for a Black & Decker KS630 jigsaw, the reCaptcha process seemed to work OK, but the supplied download link was merely a HTML page from the website that indicated a token to allow the download but did not allow the download. Is Wayfarer misinterpreting the download link code and thus failing to download it correctly, and is this partially where the problem lies with the
manualslib.com failure to download the manual from that website as well?
