Plugin Stopped Working

On Jan. 15 all of a sudden the plugin stopped working. Rather than the comment being loaded and the remainder of the page staying static I get a page reload. When I reply to a comment I get a new browser opening. I literally changed nothing but do notice a new version of jquery was released. Since that time I uploaded the newest version of Word Press and the spectacu.la plugin and still get the same results. I’m scratching my head here reading google searches galore trying to find a fix. Unfortunately two posts on wordpress support produced no help. Anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

Thank You!
