Title: Visual tab not working Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Visual tab not working * Resolved [prosperewebitor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prosperewebitor/) * (@prosperewebitor) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/) * I can’t seem to get my Visual tab to work on the writing/editing end. Any idea what’s going on? I’ve tried it on both Firefox and Explorer, and even restarted my computer. * I am getting a message saying that my computer successfully blocked an attack though. * Thanks * C Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 38 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/page/2/?output_format=md) [3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/page/3/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/page/2/?output_format=md) * [karencallahan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karencallahan/) * (@karencallahan) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-921978) * I am having the same problem and also receiving notices from norton regarding attacks. * Please reply to this question * Karen * Thread Starter [prosperewebitor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prosperewebitor/) * (@prosperewebitor) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-921987) * Karen, * I’m beginning to think it’s a recent Vista (or maybe a Norton) issue. My work computer uses XP, and access was fine. * Can anyone address this? * [karencallahan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karencallahan/) * (@karencallahan) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-921995) * Hmm… interesting. I don’t use Vista and my browser is Flock. I was thinking it might be a Norton issue but did not want to make any adjustments until I heard from one of the WordPress moderators/experts. * Karen * [Drover](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drover/) * (@drover) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-921996) * Me too! Exact same thing. Cannot switch between visual and html and getting warnings about attacks from my own site! I use XP.

I uploaded a plugin and activated it on Sunday and I updated my site last night. Everything was fine then. * Back to the original topic: I sent an email to the Norton people. Waiting for a reply… * Anyone from WordPress have a clue what’s going on? * [Drover](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drover/) * (@drover) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-922009) * what kind of plugin was it? something to do with redirects? * Thread Starter [prosperewebitor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prosperewebitor/) * (@prosperewebitor) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-922012) * ^^^ * No, suckerfish. I’ve deactivated it, and it’s still not working. I have a page redirect plugin, but it’s been active for about a week. No issues at all. * [Drover](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drover/) * (@drover) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-922014) * Hmmmm….I just installed that redirect plugin yesterday and this started this morning for me. Seems like a big coincidence if we both are using that same plugin. I don’t see anything that looks malicious in its code, but still… * [leip11](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leip11/) * (@leip11) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-922015) * i have the same problem here. * i use firefox and life in the Netherlands. * Thread Starter [prosperewebitor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prosperewebitor/) * (@prosperewebitor) * [17 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/visual-tab-not-working/#post-922016) * Drover, I’m pretty sure it isn’t a code issue, since I was able to access from a computer in another location. The other computer uses XP but does not have Norton. Do you have Norton?
