New RoboForm 7.5.6 Still Not Out of the (Bugs) Woods

RoboForm 7.5.6 is out and, just like it happened with previous releases, users are not content with this one either. A hefty batch of fixes regarding Firefox integration predominates, but Chrome is also targeted.

On Opera there is only one fix, but it finally renders RoboForm usable with the web browser since it makes Fill&Submit work.

McAfee SiteAdvisor crashes RoboForm, but there is no fix for this just now, with the developer advising users to “try to get around it.”

RoboForm seems to be suffering from a very bad case of “whammy” starting version 7.5.x. However, users not dealing with issues are affected by the update process, which is intrusive because it requires reinstallation of the application.

The rapid release model in web browser development already seems to have been adopted by the company, considering the frequency of the new updates rolled out lately (since the beginning of the month). Silent updates would be a fair next move.

Check out the full changelog for this version.

Roboform was far more reliable when it was all free. Now they charge for 7x and it's a mess.

My Roboform toolbar disappeared in Firefox after the 7.5.6 update. I had to go back to 7.5.5 to get the toolbar back. I am using Windows 7 and Firefox 7.0.1

Roboform 7.5.6 is much better than the earlier versions. I'm glad it has fixed the bug I reported about roboform and Avant browser & firefox.
Thanks for the good job.
