IE 7 Tweaks?

Ever since I did a re format--IE 7 is running just a touch slower then usual. Not a huge inconvienience, but can anyone walk me through the settings or suggest a few tweaks that might make it a bit more snappy? I have high-speed cable internet.

IE 7 Tweaks?internet explorer

IE7 is one of those Microsoft products that really can't be speeded up. It is what it is. You can turn off the anti-phishing. And you can do the usual cleaning of the system cache. Click tools %26gt; Delete Browsing History %26gt; click on whatever you'd like to delete. At a minimum temp files, cookies and history are always good to delete every so often. Old cookies or temp files can slow things down quite a bit.

Then there are some of the time saving things you can have IE7 do. Like automatically switching to new tabs. Click tools %26gt; internet options %26gt; general tab. In the tabs group (above appearance) click settings and in the new dialog box check the box next to "Always switch to new tabs when they are created". Keep clicking OK to back out.

A quicker way to open a link in a new tab is to hold down Ctrl when you click the link. You can also open sites from the address bar in a new tab. Type the address and then press Alt+Enter.

You can open multiple pages in a single IE7 screen and each page will have its own tab. But screen resolution might limit the total number of tabs you can see. So IE7 has a quick tabs feature which displays a thumbnail image of each open web page.

1. Open all the web pages you want in separate tabs.

2. Click the Quick Tabs button (just to the right of the star and + sign) or press Ctrl+Q. A thumbnail of each web page is shown.

3. Click on the web page you want to view

Opening IE- cannot access any other page?

When I open IE, there are 2 screens that open (not at the same time), but when I try to access a page besides the home page, it will not open.

Opening IE- cannot access any other page?windows media player

Your copy of Internet Explorer works better than any other I've seen. I envy you!

Is there a question involved?

ADD: Okay, okay, I'll play nice. Your question is incredibly lacking in detail, but from what you have written, it looks like a virus. Or, if your 'home page' is set to a local page, it could be your Internet connection. It could also be IE is set to access the Internet through a proxy, and said proxy is blocking access. It might be your ISP has problems with their DHCP service, or your modem is having problems resolving an IP address for you, and it's preventing you from accessing the Internet. If you're on a LAN, your internal IP address could be missing from the DHCP service of your router.

My first answer was not a simple jab at your use of IE. It was an invitation to add more detail to your question.

I have has major problems since downloading, maybe even before downloading IE-7, but I have had to turn computer off instead of shutting down through start button. Internet connection is troublesome already with wireless network, now with the active desktop I have had to reboot, or turn complete off serveral times. Only thing I can think of is this active desktop as the cause. Please help...

Yahoo IE 7 and Messenger 8 - loooking for speed problem fix?

After downloading Yahoo IE 7 and Yahoo Messenger 8, I got a notice automatically to download a fix for a speed problem. But now I can't find it again for a 2nd computer.

Yahoo IE 7 and Messenger 8 - loooking for speed problem fix?ireland

One of two things:

- The notice was a scam, and you have installed a trojan or spyware on your PC - in this case, download, install and run ADAWARE %26amp; SPYBOT to get rid of it

- The notice was a genuine Windows patch - in that case, presumably the second PC has a different version of Windows which doesn't have the problem, or it had already installed the patch - go to Windows Update to see what the PC needs.

On IE 7 is there a way to have the Links Bar visible without have the actual word Links Visible?

My IE is acting up...?

Since i re-register for norton is been acting up-i have IE 7 and when i put in a url and press search it doesnt do anything and then when i hit the x to close it , it gets stuck and sometimes freezes, i had firefox long time ago and the guy at the comp store said firefox causes alot of viruses, so i wont dl that again, but does anyone know whats up? help..

My IE is acting up...?uninstall internet explorer

If your going to get a virus from a site, its most likely going to be with Internet Explorer then Firefox.

My IE is acting up...?microsoft.com internet explorer

WOW THE GUY AT THE COMPUTER STORE IS A LIAR.

Everybody knows firefox is far more secure the I.E.

It's a proven fact.
Ugh... you've been talking to idiots. FireFox does not cause any problems other than huge memory leaks and occasional security holes.

I would get rid of Norton and use Nod32 if you desire an antivirus. Then, reinstall IE, make sure that you configure the zones properly, and then remove execute permission from the local settings folder for your user account. Congrats, IE is secure.

I would also run housecall.trendmicro.com and system file checker.

To run system file checker, Start%26gt;%26gt;run, type in "sfc /scannow" and hit enter.
Norton Internet security is probably causing the issue. Norton does that! Try this:

On the IE toolbar go to Tools | Manage Add-ons | Enable and Disable Add-ons, find the reference to Norton Internet Security, or anything Norton. Click it on then go down and disable the feature(s). Then shut down IE and restart. See if that helps. Then call Norton and tell them that their software is broken! :-)
Go the microsoft website and re-download I%26gt;E 7 if it still doesn't work try these popular browsers

www.mozilla.com

www.opera.com
Agree that Firefox is more secure that IE. Norton is also known to slow your computer down. Three free solutions:

Firefox

Zone Alarm (firewall)

AVG (Antivirus)

I would remove (uninstall) Norton and replace it with the above.
your best bet is to get rid of norton and firefox doesn`t cause viruses. it blocks viruses. spysweeper is a good program to have on your computer and it works well with norton.

Ie not working?

I don't know why .. it just doesn't load pages.

Firefox doesn't eiehr, but tht's broken too -_-

But IE works on my brother's account, which is on the same computer, which is how I'm on yahoo.

I've just reset all of the things .. customized things .. yea, so it's like .. how it was before any the settings was changed. And it's still not working -_- and I'm quite annoyed now.

Ie not working?ie

Since both firefox and IE don't work it sounds as if the problem may not be your browsers. Check your network settings. Are you connected through ethernet, wireless, or modem? See if they are enabled and the right settings are set. It is possible that the network setting on your account are different from your brothers. Without more info its hard to know what's your solution.

You should be able to export your shortcuts from IE and then import them into Firefox.
firefox it's so much better.....

yes, you shouldn't have removed IE from your computer because it's required for many other programs to run properly.....

If you were getting too much pop-ups you should had stop using IE, but leave it installed.
Go to File -%26gt; Import.

It gives you an option of importing your stuff from your Internet Explorer.

Hope this helps :)

IE and Firefox?

I am having issues with the IE browser viewing my website.

I am using CSS because it's supposed to so much more efficient than just HTML. I am confused with the proper CSS to detect the person viewing the sights browser. Is there anyone out there that can help?

http://www.jamescrider.com

thanks

IE and Firefox?ie 7

Well, you don't normally use CSS to detect the browser (although you can do this with JavaScript.)

The best way to build cross-browser CSS is to begin with standards-compliant CSS. This will usually work without trouble in Firefox, Safari, Opera, and (usually) IE7.

Then use conditional comments to add a secondary style sheet to handle exceptions with earlier IE forms:

%26lt;!--[if IE %26lt; 7]%26gt;

---stylesheet with IE exceptions here ---

%26lt;![endif]--%26gt;

This special tag is read only by IE. If an IE version less than 7 sees this code, it runs the CSS found inside the tag (which should be either a stylesheet or a link to a stylesheet.)

Using this technique, you can spend most of your effort on the compliant browsers and than handle inconsistencies in IE without wierd hacks or breaking things that work on the browsers that choose to follow standards.

EDIT --

I saw on your page that you do have a conditional comment, but it occurs BEFORE the main style sheet. Put it after the main stylesheet so the IE-specific stuff doesn't get overridden by the general style. And --- stay safe in Iraq, Bro...

Good luck!

IE and Firefox?ireland internet explorer

Yes, you need to switch to FireFox immidiately. IE has always had trouble viewing CSS unless you use specific code to allow it to be seen in IE.
Here's an article about it...
Welcome to the world of website development. You will always have problems getting your website to appear in the same in IE and Firefox, so you might as well get used to it. Start by validating it to make sure that it is standards compliant. After that, you just have to tweak it until you get it the way you want it.

IE 7. I would like to know pros and cons.?

One of my sisters put IE 7 on my mom's computer and I was at first madder than a hornet. I've had previous experience with it and all of them were negative. But before I rehash any bad memories onto the one that did the work, I'd like to know the opinions of other people. I'm asking this in two locations to get more possible responses.

IE 7. I would like to know pros and cons.?default browser

Cons would be IE7 itself as well as allowing ActiveX which is the biggest security flaw in IE.

I highly recommend Firefox.

In this review, CNET Prizefight Internet Explorer 7 vs. Firefox 2, Firefox wins in every category.

Firefox is better in every way including, installation woes, look and community, tabbed browsing, cool new features, security and performance. The winner is clearly Firefox 2.

IE 7. I would like to know pros and cons.?microsoft word download internet explorer

I like it... Tab Browsing, integrated Search Engine of you choice, better security, built in POP-UP Blocker. Of course everything Fire Fox has too.
I never really had any bad experiences with it, but I avoid using IE period, because it's known to be more vulnerable than other browsers. I prefer Firefox and Opera, you should check those out.

Firefox Tuning

Rise up the speed of your Firefox Browser:

Open the configuration menu by typing in the following into the field where you normally fill in the URLs:

About:config

In the config menu you have to set up the following changes:

- network.http.pipelining (put “true”)

- network.http.proxy.pipelining (put “true”)

- network.http.pipelining.maxrequests put on 100

- network.http.max-connections 48

- network.http.max-connections-per-server 16

- network.http.max-persistent-connections-... 8

- network.http.max-persistent-connections-... 4

You save the changes by clicking the right button of your mouse somewhere on the screen and choose new -%26gt; integer from the menu. Now you have to write nglayout.initialpaint.delay into the popup and type in number 0 into the next window.

That′s it, now you are able to surf much faster threw the internet with your Firefox browser!

IE 7 is a bit of a system hog, but it's supposed to be compatible with more sites.

I still recommend FireFox 2 (3 should be out soon). FireFox is free and fully customizable.

Both feature tabbed browsing, but it's slightly easier to install Flash for IE than FireFox.

CartoonNetwork and some sites heavily driven by Flash operate better on IE.

FireFox is just a more streamlined experience.

IE 7 is prettier

FireFox has skins.

Again, try Fire Fox if you can. Skip IE for everything else.

(If you really need an IE window, FireFox has the "IE Tab" which allows you to use FireFox, but view the page as if it was in IE)

How to prevent IE from continously running in the background??

IE keeps running by itself, with it "opening" itself for around 40 applcations at a go. I have uninstalled it from control panel, reformatted my computer at least 10 times. I even tried to install a different copy of windows but to no avail. I tried to install another internet browser like Avant Browser but this only causes Avant to keep popping up... Since reformatting didnt help, I installed Lavasoft Ad-aware, Super Antispyware and Spybot search and destroy, updated all of them, rebotted in safe mode and scan. No prizes for guessing even in safe mode, IE still pops up. I'm desperately in need of help... HELP!!!

If you are using Internet Explorer, make sure that you have Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher. Anything lower is NOT supported.

Here are a few things you can try. Let me know if any works.

1. Try disabling third-party browser extensions.

Tools -%26gt; Internet Options -%26gt; Advanced

This requires a complete restart of the IE browser, or sometimes a reboot of the PC.

2. Try resetting your security options.

Tools -%26gt; Internet Options -%26gt; Security -%26gt; Security -%26gt; Custom Level

Reset the custom setting to "medium low".

3. Completely disable antivirus and firewall products to see if issue goes away.

Sounds like your computer isn't properly setup for Firefox. Can't you just use the Firefox Bookmarks to store the links?

Or right-click the links and choose open with Firefox.

The links you already added with Firefox were identical to the IE ones, hense the same problem.

You need to go to Add Or Remove Programs and make sure Firefox is set as the default program. Another thing you can do is right-click the shortcut file, click Properties, click Choose Program To Open With (or whatever it says) and make sure Mozilla Firefox is chosen. That should solve it. I know there's some specific Windows Explorer option to choose which program handles file extensions but I can't remember it. Hope that helps.

Why doesn't IE find my Yahoo Home Page when I click it? How can I fix this?

When I click on IE the browser tries to find the Yahoo.com Home Page for me. However, many times, after being so slow, it just ends up saying "the server could not be found." I have cable, which is very fast. However, something is getting in the way of the connection. 10 times out of 20 that I try to connect I end up going to Tools-Internet Options-and to the Advamced tab to change something, anything, and for some reason it will then connect. By then, I've spent an hour or an hour and a half tickering with it. I'm running Windows 98SE, and IE 6.0+. I've scaned all of the c: drive for viruses and run a defrag on that drive also. When I went to my designation for my home page, it had some weird paths in it starting with "re//c://." Like it has somenow bypassed the c: drive. This was lodged onto my computer without my knowledge. I also found unknown sites substituted for my Yahoo home page. It hasn't come up in any of the "Windows" scans, but appears in the Yahoo address box.

After copy IE folder from the other computer then it works well on the case number 1 but the case number 2 still getting the same problem. Also after it past around 1 or 2 days then it return back to get the same problems :(

This computer using NOD32 and it's updated to be the latest version. I'm also scanned the virun on local hard drives but there are nothing.

Have you ever get this problem? It shall be good if you share your experienced or let me know some ideas to solve this problem without format the hard drive then reinstall Windows XP.

Thank you so much.

(PS. I'm trying to solve this problem by Spy Sweeper, I'll post the result of testing here)

Need help with IE and Outlook Express problem?

I am not getting any error messages on anything but am having problems with IE and Outlook Express closing down. I will be in the middle of something and they just completely close. When I pull up my browser it is very slow and is very slow to pull up web pages. I uninstalled and reinstalled the IE version 6. I called my internet provider to see if it was a problem with them. They said everything looks fine and seemed to think my antivirus program may be causing it. I have Trend Micro, and have not made any changes to the settings so I dont know if this is the problem. Maybe an update to the Trend Micro is causing it, I dont know. Anyone know what this could be? Any help would be appreciated.

Ie corrupting laptop?download windows xp

use a good browser, mozzilla firefox or opera!

Ie corrupting laptop?ies internet explorer

try a different brower and see if you have the same problem

if not you probably have virus and/or spyware you need to get rid off
No! Get Mozilla or Opera!
As above replace IE with Firefox its a far better browser.

You will also need to check your system out for virus and spyware.

I recomend AVG for the virus, Go to

www.grisoft.com and browse the products section to find the free version of anti virus (there really is no need to get the pay for version as the free is very good indeed).

while you are there you can also download the anti-spy ware program too. this is probably one of the best on the market and you get it fully working for a months trial after which the shield is dropped.

Download from www.downloads.com

adaware se

spywareblaster

spybot search and destroy

install the programs and regularly update and run scans this should keep your system tip top.

If firefox does not sort out the problem you can use anyones copy of XP to reinstall as long as you use your own COA key

Try following the advice on this web site

IE doesn't connect, but Firefox can (yes, I have looked at some other questions)?

I can connect to the internet with Firefox, as you can see here, but I can't connect with either IE or Maxthon. Also, I can connect to AIM, Xfire, and online games, but I can't connect to Windows Live Messenger (which really sucks because I use WLM more.) My connection is DSL, but I'm not quite sure of the specifics -probably dial up.

I suppose your using IE 7... IE is full of bugs

Don't listen to Carling.

Do you have the latest IE? IE7?

IE7 is the latest version, and in my opinion the best. I find it does tabbed browsing and RSS feeds the best. And it is not 'buggy' as Carling said. I use it all the time, and I really don't face an issue. Unlike Firefox, where I always have tons of issues.

Or maybe you're taking up too much space on your hard drive, and it's slowing things down. You need to get rid of either Maxthon or Firefox. I think they're bogging the system down, to run better.

And I know how you feel about WLM. I use that all the time too. Just make sure you're really connected, and that all ports are open to work with.

i have just upgraded to ie 7 and not one page will load yet firefox works perfect. i need help on this and i need it fast please reply to this and thinks for any one who does.

Ie 7 will not load any page please help me?microsoft net

USE FIREFOX, less cookies, less ADS, LESS SPYWARE, its faster. You already said FF loaded it then...use it!

Ie 7 will not load any page please help me?microsoft flight simulator internet explorer

try refreshing the page or going to your home page
Dump then reload the 7 upgrade. Empty Recycle Bin, Shut down, reboot.

Reload 7, (if you must). Shut down/reboot.
dunno, lol
It is possible that you have history in the cache that is somehow in conflict with the new version----go to your internet options page and delete all history there ---keep the cookies---they are hard to do without once you restart---retry to load your pages

??? if this doesn't do it---you may have to remove and reinstall as mentioned by the dude here earlier

Hope this gets you going again

And, good luck !!!
This is a real nasty one that I've been through! When you download the new IE 7 and it does not load, it normally leaves a file on your computer explaining why- usually it's in your registry and you have to go in through your start menu to what is called "regedit" and search a certain setting in your registry that's preventing it from loading and change it. If you do not get this file, go to the MS site and type in "IE7 does not load" and hopefully it brings up the causes and solutions for you. If not, you may have to phone Microsoft while you are doing it and get them to walk you through it. If this is not the case, you may have a damaged winninet.dll file from a virus that went around the net recently. Before doing anything, make sure that all your important files are backed up. I had to re-format my computer.
Its time you changed your browser to Firefox or Opera and give time to MIcrosoft to stabilise IE7.

IE keeps crashing?

I have the latest version of IE and it was working fine and something happened to it recently because it keeps crashing. Doesn't matter what site I visit, after I've been using it for about 5 minutes, it just crashes. I think I need to reinstall it, how do I go about doing that?

Blocking websites on XP and IE.?

Hello,

I am trying to block websites without using an external blocker.

I have read some replies and none have worked.

I have tried:

In IE, opened Tools%26gt;Internet options%26gt;Privacy%26gt;sites%26gt;i have added the site and clicked OK

Still have access to the site.

Also tried: In IE%26gt;Tools%26gt;Internet options%26gt;security%26gt;restricted sites%26gt;sites%26gt;and added site

Still have access to the site.

Is there any way to block a site in IE. These methods have not worked.

Thanks.

Blocking websites on XP and IE.?windows xp sp2

You are correct, those methods, will not work.

Some people suggest that you add a website that you wish to block by adding it to Internet Explorer's Restricted Zone. This does NOT totally block a site. It will only RESTRICT a site from certain actions such as using javascript, Active-X and Java etc.

Some people suggest that your add a website to the Internet Explorer 'Privacy' settings. This does not block a site. It only stops that site from using cookies.

But, you can easily and effectivily block access to a website by adding it to your Windows HOSTS file. (Yes, Hosts is capitalised for some strange reason).

1.Go to your HOSTS file which is located at:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC for windows Vista and XP

C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC for Windows 2k

C:\WINDOWS for Windows 98 and ME

2. Open HOSTS with Notepad.

The default Windows HOSTS looks like this:

______________________

# Copyright ? 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.

#

# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.

#

# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each

# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should

# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.

# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one

# space.

#

# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual

# lines or following the machine name denoted by a "#" symbol.

#

# For example:

#

# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server

# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

#

127.0.0.1 localhost

_____________________________

3. Directly under the line that says 127.0.0.1 Localhost, you will want to type:

127.0.0.1 name of the URL you want to block

For example to block the MySpace.com homepage (highly recommended!), simply type:

127.0.0.1 myspace.com

127.0.0.1 www.myspace.com

Other parts of MySpace could be blocked in a similar way:

127.0.0.1 search.myspace.com

127.0.0.1 profile.myspace.com

etc etc etc...

You may need to add sites with both with and without the "www.". Test after blocking to make sure you got it right.

You can add as many sites as you wish to block in this fashion. I, myself, have over 12000 undesireable and dangerous sites in my personal HOSTS file!

4. Close Notepad and answer "Yes" when prompted.

5. Reboot your computer and attempt to access your now blocked website. You should see a Cannot find server or DNS Error saying: "The page cannot be displayed".

Good luck.

IE doesn't print, what's up?

When I click the button of "Print" or "Print Preview", or click Ctrl an P in IE... it doesn't print the page. (Althogh it prints it in Firefox.) What's the problem and how can it be fixed.

IE doesn't print, what's up?microsoft visual studio

Hmm.. Weird.

You can try repairing your IE through the Control Panel - Add and Remove programs. It should be part of the Windows Components.

Use FF from now on.

IE does not seem to be recognizing the Adobe flash plug-in..?

If I un-install the Adobe flash plug-in and then re-install..all is well until I re-boot, then IE (neither 6 nor 7) see the plug in. No such problems for FireFox.

Trouble with Windows installation

If you have trouble with installation of Flash Player, follow the below troubleshooting steps. If one step does not correct the problem, move onto the next step. For optimal troubleshooting, after each step, restart your machine, and test Flash Player before moving onto the next step.

1. Restart. In some situations, Windows or Internet Explorer needs to be restarted in order to complete an update. Restart your machine, and test Flash Player before moving to Step 2.

2. Reinstall. Refer to the steps in Try this first: How to fix almost all Flash Player issues.

3. Repair the browser. The next most common cause of problems is an error with the browser. Often a browser upgrade or any changes to the browser may require a browser repair and reinstallation of Flash Player.

To repair Internet Explorer: Open Start%26gt;Control Panel%26gt;Add/Remove Programs. Choose the browser from the list of programs, click Change/Remove, and choose the Repair option. Restart after repairing the browser, and follow steps in Try this first: How to fix almost all Flash Player issues to reinstall Flash Player again. If Internet Explorer does not appear on the Add/Remove list, Repair is not an option, and you should move onto the next step.

Other browsers: Follow the above steps to see if your browser has a "Repair" option, and if it does, repair it. If your browser (such as Netscape) does not have a Repair option, you must reinstall the browser in order to repair it. Try Steps 4 through 7 first before moving onto Step 8, to reinstall the browser.

4. Security level: Your Internet Explorer security level may be set to High or a custom level which does not allow viewing of ActiveX controls.

To view your Security level, from within Internet Explorer, choose Tools%26gt;Internet Options, and in the Security tab, choose Internet.

Though your browser security settings should be chosen by you or your system administrator, the 'Medium: Default Level' will allow you to view Flash content. For any Custom Level, ensure that both "Download Signed ActiveX controls" and "Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins" are not Disabled. (Enable or Prompt will work).

5. Permissions: Your permissions may not allow you to install ActiveX controls or plug-ins. If this is a possibility, refer to Permissions can affect installing Adobe Flash Player for more information.

6. Update your video drivers. This step is especially important if you experience a freeze or crash when installing or using Flash Player. Right-click on your Desktop and choose Properties, Settings, Advanced, and Adapter to view the manufacturer's name. Refer to the manufacturer's web site to download drivers or for assistance with installing the latest drivers.

7. Reinstall the browser. Download and install the latest version from your browser manufacturer's Web site. Download and install the latest Flash Player from the Flash Player Download Center.

I cant stand IE-7?

A techie installed it without asking.

After spending a lot of bucks getting the PC repaired I'm not willing to try to remove it right now.

How do I get rid of those miserable popups that are hitting me all the time?

I have my firewall on, also using AVG but can't get rid of bothersome stuff like Red Orbit.com and MSN and Messenger when my home page is Yahoo.

This is never happened before.I had more control with IE-6.

Cant stand IE-7

I cant stand IE-7?microsoft xp

You're better off going with Firefox or Opera. Both have built-in popup blockers. Your firewall and AVG won't do anything to stop popups. However, if you really want IE, you can just get the Google Toolbar, which includes a popup blocker.

I cant stand IE-7?download windows xp internet explorer

It sounds like you have a BHO (Browser Help Object) which is a parasite that attaches itself to you browser. Download HijackThis and run a scan. Check the BHO section for this redorbit.com entry and put a check mark against it and then click Fix Items.
hahhahahahahahaha

sorry about that

holy ****

dude

use firefox

download it and use it

billions of ppl use it instead of IE cas its ****

and its faster and has an auto block to block around 95% of pop ups

i use it and i get like 5 pop ups max a month

it also has sweeeeeeet add ons that change the graphics

get the cobalt one

o and btw IE key logs that means its a security threat it will track ur key strokes and send it to a remote computer

like passwords and crap
get secretmaker
You've got malware or spyware. Get a copy of "Ad-Aware" and "Spybot Search %26amp; Destroy." Both are available free of charge; a Google search will give you download sites. Run both programs, as each spots things that the other doesn't. Download "AVG Antivirus," which also has a free edition. Run it. After all that, you more than likely will have fixed the problem.

Internet Explorer 7, whatever its vices or virtues, does not give you all these popups by itself.
To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 to return to Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP

Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel."

Click "Add or Remove Programs."

Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.

Scroll down the list and highlight the version of Internet Explorer 7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove."

Uninstall that,restart your PC and you are on IE6
your problem has nothing to do with the browser, you have spuware on your pc, thats why the pop-ups .

If I uninstall IE 7 and restart my computer will IE 6 be on my computer?

I need to know before I uninstall it cuz I don't want to mess my computer up anymore then it is with this IE 7

If I uninstall IE 7 and restart my computer will IE 6 be on my computer?windows xp themes

yes it will still be there i did the same thing a couple of weeks ago

If I uninstall IE 7 and restart my computer will IE 6 be on my computer?download windows media player internet explorer

Yes, I believe so. However, check with the FAQ's on Microsoft's website first to make sure.
When you uninstall it should ask you if yoiu would like to go back to IE6

IE 7 Help.?

Anyone else notice that IE 7 takes forever to open? It sometimes takes a long time for pages to open as well. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Is there an update available to fix it?

IE 7 Help.?default browser

There is an update: it's called FireFox :) Seriously, IE7 is quite bloated, I don't know of any hotfixes. I would suggest removing any extraneous plugins and toolbars, such as the ubiquitous Google Toolbar. Also, try clearing your cache and settings its max size to around 100 - 200 MB.

IE 7 Help.?microsoft word download internet explorer

Re install it. it shouldn't take long time.
Might do a quick spyware or virus check.

When you say pages are slow to open, are you having problems with your internet connection?
all vista compatibles has problems ... try fire fox it is free faster easier
MY IE 7 is fine do you have a slow ISP? Check for spyware and are you running a lot of programs while you are on the net?

IE 7 Problem with Handeling Session?

I have developed a website in which I have kept the username in session. that not a problem and my site is running fine. Now when i open the website in IE 7 and then open another tab and open the same website . Loging out of one system makes my session expire and the other system also logs out. And healp will be highly appreciated.

Thankyou

IE 7 Problem with Handeling Session?microsoft windows

Yes, this is expected. IE6 does the same thing; if you log in to a site, and then create a new window from that instance of IE6 (Ctrl-N) they share the same socket connection, and so the web server thinks it's the same connection (and in fact it is). Firefox does the same thing, it's not your fault, it's an implementation detail w/ Microsoft and Mozilla. Best to not use tabbed browsing when in your site, there's nothing you can do about it.

IE issues with css?

How come the dvd cover is shifted slightly to the right in IE?

http://www.love-pin.com/shout/product_pa...

Thanks!!

IE issues with css?microsoft flight simulator

IE6 does not format CSS properly. To accomodate for IE6, use these tags in the head part of your document and change the CSS to make it work.

%26lt;!--[if IE 6]%26gt;

.insertCSStoFixHere {blah:true;}

%26lt;![endif]--%26gt;

This way, the browser reads these tags and if IE 6, it uses them instead of your normal CSS.

This hack works for all versions of IE, just change the version number to suit.
