Have you tried Windows tech support? IE, after all, is a Microsoft
product. The techies there should be able to fix you up.

It not an IE problem. I have IE10 and have no issues.
Probaby Firefox is causing the problem.
My wife uses Firefox because she likes big icons on her screen
for shortcuts to shopping sites.

That *you* have no issues with IE doesn't mean that others have no
issues, too. What is it with these universal pronouncements?

Herring said he had issues -the same issues, in this case- with Firefox
and IE.

Don't get upset. "Most" people who don't download and intall a lot of
software on a Windows system don't have an issue.
It's John that's the exception.
And it "fixed itself" by using Chrome.

Installing Chrome didn't fix anything other than allow him to view
videos played with the Adobe Flash player. He still has something
screwy with IE and Firefox and some of us are trying to help him
determine what it is.

Well, be my guest.

Your all inclusive comment that "Most people who don't download and
intall (sic) a lot of software on a Windows system don't have an issue"
is bull****. It also suggests that those who *do* have and use a lot of
installed software have issues, which is also bull****.

Look, he's got a vid problem caused by installing software.
Whether the software caused it or he tinkered with a setting.
BFD. I don't know where you got the idea I said installing software
causes most people problems. But it happened to John, and wouldn't have
if he hadn't installed the other browsers or tinkered with settings.
Stick to picking up typos. By the time you figure out what's wrong I
think John could have reinstalled Window about 20 times.
And fixed his problem. Until next time.

You seem to have a "my way or the highway" on virtually any subject.
Thing is, most people don't follow your path.

Huh? I don't want or need "followers."
Weird.

My hunch is his problem is caused by the *lack* of some required software.
