Does anyone else find that Internet Explorer 7 as a browser is flakey as hell? I find that it stops responding and runs really slowly nearly everytime I use it.
I'm trying Firefox at the moment, which is OK and seems to be more stable. Just wondered what browsers you use and how you find they are for reliability?

erm you are talking magic fairy dust stuff to me...switch the thing on and it works..and thats as far as im going lol. Sometimes the puter runs slow, and sometimes it seems like its going to take off and fly..very strange. Yeah we got ie7 on ours, and its a bit bizarre. But other than that couldnt tell you

I have internet explorer 6 still which I don't have too many problems with, at work a lot of people upgraded to 7 and have problems all the time, I didn't upgrade at work either.

I upgraded to IE7 and have had nothing but problems with it. It crashes all the time and it runs so slow I give up half the time. I tend to use firefox much more now, it's far more reliable and runs 10x faster. Saying that I'm on IE now lol.

Has anyone fixed this? Mine has just started doing it and I'm close to throwing the PC out the window! I cant get anything done as it just keeps freezing (every 2-3 mins for about 30secs at a time)

I've recently had a new computer with window's Vista on it, and so everything is pickling my head atm! When i use IE 7, if i click on it from the desktop, it shuts itself down occassionally and is generally slow.. but when i go to it from all programmes or the task bar, its fine! I dont use it that often though so cant help im affraid. x-x-x
