Hi All

I`ve noticed over the past 2 days that my Browser IE 5.5 isn`t working right, it works fine for a while and then when paging and calling up sites I get missing icons and pictures, plus it sometimes doesn`t get there, but when I use AOLs browser on the same connection all is fine, any ideas?

I had a similar problem but getting a new ISP seems to have solved it ;)

Its ok... I personally think it has too much crap on it. When I click on a link to veiw a media file or whatever, I expect Media Player to popup, but instead its on the side of the browser and me with a slow comp, it gets quite annoying

I was having similar problems, and I have AOL. I think that it is just AOL ----ing up. You can fix it (kinda) by repairing IE.

Aol also offers broadband... it's called 'high speed crap'.

Getting cable in June.

Get IE 6. Disable stuff you don't want, and it's pretty much the same as IE 5.5, except it doesn't crash as much.
