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.

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****.

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



Curiousity got the best of me, so I installed Windoze 7 on my Macbook
Air, installed Firefox, went over to youtube and was told I needed to
install Adobe Flash, which I did. Once I did, I had no problems playing
the youtube videos.

I also got what looks like 300
+ hours of Windoze 7 updates to install that were released
after my copy of that OS was purchased, and I'll bet that like always,
many of them will require restarting the computer. What a pain in the ass.
