    I recently uploaded to IE 7.0, but have had trouble typing, with this browser sometimes it skips letters I've typed, but it's only on IE like I can go on MSN and it will be fine then I come here and try typing sentences and it looks like this"Hey gys Ined hlp very mch so" Any idea on how to fix this?

    I agree with the rest, firefox is just less troublesome. Also when I had adware some time ago I just deleted IE so it couldn't do jack xD it couldn't open any of the websites since somehow my default browser was still IE but it wasn't there so nothing happend. But yeah sry don't know about your problem, maybe your service pack or your .net firmware version?

    Fault Finding

    I'll try talk you through a few ways to try and correct the "mysterious problem" that you are having.

    Try this:

    >>Change screen resolution via start menu>control panel>display settings and then go into internet explorer and see if it made any change. If not, change your resolution back to what you usually had it.

    >>Go into Internet Explorer - click "page" on the tool bar, go down to text size and change it to smaller and see if that fixes your typing issue, or maybe go larger and see what happens. Also, Under "Page" go to Encoding and change it from the pre-set one of "UNICODE UTF-8" to Western Union (English).

    If none of the above works, I'd suggest either going back to the original Internet Explorer or choosing from one of the many web-browsers out their.

    My rating on Web-Browsers are as follows:

    Mozilla Fire Fox
    Internet Explorer 7.0
    Opera

    Regards

    A friend of mine use the new IE and she has problems with Neopets site. She's hating it XD But I'm not able to help her^^"
    So for Neopets she use Firefox.
    I don't like IE, because it find always the way to install on my pc spywere°° And always when I use IE it opens tons of spot site! :cry:

    However, I prefer the multi sheets of Mozilla.

    If you look at the mechanical workings of Internet Explorer, it uses alot more processors and is mechanically more indepth than Mozilla and Opera. The only reason it seems slow is because either your computer cant handle loading it as well as what it does those other programs (That are less mechanical) or you have spyware/adaware lying around on your computer that is one of the main reasons why web-browsers lag.

    I don't mind Internet explorer too much, i get a few errors with mozilla, but they seem to be a problem with my ISP more than anyone. Still cant fix em though.
