Hi Carl:
You must be using one of the [incomplete] browser plugins. They were started long ago, but never finished nor kept up to date with modern browser updates. They're most likely unusable. It's sad to report, but SQRL just never gained significant traction, and the enthusiasm some of the developers had has waned, and I don't really think much has happened in a couple of years or more.
You can rely on Steve's client. I believe the Android client got sufficiently developed that it's reliable. I think that the iOS client is at least 75% done (but I haven't used it in at least a year.) You should not be using either/any of the browser plugins.
