IE 8 freezes on this site
Hi, whenever I try to browse the forum on this site, my browser just freezes.
My computer's up to date, but i don't get why it would freeze the minute i go on this site. Even if someone has replied to my question, and i open that link from my inbox, it would just show me a blank page. On my laptop, it's no problem at all, just on my PC. THanks. |

Please supply details of the browser you are using.
You will get a far better experience of newsgroups if you use a proper newsreader instead of that slow and quirky web interface you are using.

Try clicking the Compatibility View icon on the right of URL bar (broken page
icon). -- Rey "Ericson" wrote: Hi, whenever I try to browse the forum on this site, my browser just freezes.

This is not a website; it's a newsgroup. It's meant to be accessed with a newsreader, not a browser. |

Of course It should not freeze on this site or any site - unless you have some problem that could be IE8 related (or not). What do you do when it freezes to resume browsing? You do not need to install a newsreader to use this site. The interface is different so it may indeed make your experience more pleasureable, but your IE will still be broken. You do not need to use a newsreader to use this site. If IE8 freezes here, it will probably freeze someplace else and it is unlikely having a newsreader installed will help you when that happens. Why download some other program to "fix" something that should already be working? Did you install/upgrade to IE8? Do you know if this page worked okay with IE7? Depending on how you got to IE8 and other things that may be installed, something may have not gone smoothly. There are a lot of variables to rule out and isolate the problem, but it should not be freezing. Do you want to fix your IE8 so it works here or download a newsreader? |

IE 8 freezes on this site
Well, when it starts freezing i just End Program and IE works good again on
any site. I downloaded and installed IE8 on the PC and it works fine and has been. It's only this site that it causes the problem. I don't like having the idea of using a newsreader where my laptop browser also has IE8 is letting me reply to you guys. I'd like to be able to fix IE8 on my PC, because that's the main computer. I've never tried using this site using IE7, so i wouldn't know if it worked back then or not. The compatibility feature doesn't really help me at this point. But recently if i click on a link that someone has replied to my topic, ie8 loads up but now it shows a blank page, the freezing is gone though, or hasn't occurred. Thanks.
