Is it ok to mix this product with vinegar?
Yes, but only in the washing machine.  Do not store the mixture as it may build pressure and explode.

Yes.

Is this product a disinfectant?
No.  Hydrogen Peroxide is not legally classified as a disinfectant.

Can I use this product in a front loading washing machine?
No.  In soft water areas it can cause sudsing.

No.

I used the liquid bleach and noticed there are brown spots on my clothes.
There may be iron (or manganese) in the water, or perhaps a corroded steel part within the washing machine.  Peroxide will oxidize the iron to a brown oxide.
