Has chess.com gone crazy? what are those stupid symbols they seem now to be using. What happened to algebraic notation? I know the crazies have taken over the world but this notation is beyond me.

Do you mean figurine notation? You can change it to regular algebraic in your settings.

It seems there is a problem with my computer. I seem to get crazy symbols instead of the regular notation of either text or figurine. I am using an old version of Windows and when I use the Firefox browser I get the crazy symbols but when I use Chrome everything is ok. So when I run chess.com I will use Chrome from now on. Would you, or someone else, perhaps,, know the programming language used for the chess.com website so I can make a more permanent correction for this little problem?

If your browser is out of date, that could be the problem. That said, I would try clearing the browser cache first, if that doesn't work, then see about upgrading the browser.
