    No issues for me, just tested Firefox 74 and fTelnet works as expected.

    I seems to work with the public proxies, but not with my private proxy or the ones running on several Synchronet boards I just tested.

    Any idea where I can get a newer version of fTelnetProxy.exe? The one on GitHub is several years old.

    Ah, gotcha. I have my own socket policy service that I host locally and
    things work fine. Sorry man ,not sure how to help beyond that :/

    My problem was indeed too old a copy of fTelnetProxy.exe. Rick Parrish posted a newer copy on his GitHub page and helped me out.
