any idea what this problem is...... when filling in web forms it freezes when i switch between fields.... for lots of seconds a time..... and its a waste of time..... any idea what I can do?
I've had this problem all the time, while using ie 4 to ie 6, I've never not had this problem and I just want quick, flowing forms. Is that too much to ask? :(
try to set a tab order for your forms. How many forms do you have? What kind?
No, no, no!!! :P This is a problem with my computer.
***ANY FORM***
I go on google, type in a search, ANY SEARCH, and it freezes for about 10 seconds and starts the search. Then if I search again, same problem. I can go anywhere, ANYWHERE and fill in something, I then press Post/Search/Go and it freezes for some time and continues. Any idea what to do?
Any suggestions please..... :rolleyes:
I do get the same problem. i guess it is not when i upgraded to i6 or reformat the system
Sucks real bad, and no-one has the answer. DAMMIT ... I'm gone for 30, my ***** of a sister wants the computer.... and why? Not for homework... just to "chat"... my ***** of a mum says she can and she had the bastard thing for 6 hours straight yesterday after school, isn't that a ****? :mad:
Ooops I swore! :rolleyes:
HELP ME PLEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSEEEE!!!!!!!! :cool:
You might have some spyware spying where or what you do on Internet. I suggest you to download this, http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ and get all those f**in' programs out of your computer.
probably have spyware in your pc like mc said, and mite have alot of ad-aware
there is an adaware prog at
www.downloads.com
search there and get all of that sh*t out of ur pc :D
and if it still does it you need to look into upgrading your ram :rolleyes:
The link I provided detect both: SpyWare and AdWare.
when you DL ad-aware (everyone should) make sure you get the newest reference file too.. it has any new spyware apps that have been added to their remove list since the release of the actual program...
ok then use mc's link :D
lol
somethings you can remove by searching your registry, but if your not familiar with the registry dont delete anything ;)
*Downloading* If it doesn't work then I'll give you a shout.
certain programs may not work after you run it... there are programs that "require" certain "components" in order to work... but i assure you... the program is not worth having if it won't run without something ad-aware will find...Quote:

for example.. if you install morpheus and run ad-aware.. it will find some components.. you can delete them... and it will still work fine..
but if you download grokster.. install it.. and then run ad-aware and remove spyware.. grokster won't work anymore... I guess it "NEEDS" that GATOR software to run :rolleyes:
Ah well, screw grokster then ;)
I agree with Kleinma.... any "soft" that needs those "bastard" files to run... only deserves to die ;)
that is what i said... i got 2 real good IT guys here at my office and when they told me to DL ad-aware i did.. and i ran it and it found like 150+ entries it wanted to delete.. so i was kinda scared to remove all that stuff.. so when i saw them i asked them again and said how do i know what to remove.. and both of them at the same time said "ALL OF IT" they said.. if ad-aware finds it.. you don't want it..
That's my nature!!!
die gator die lol :D
No luck guys. That did nothing. Google still takes time to kick in and I'm wondering if there will ever be a cure. :(
what OS are you running?
What kind of search have you done?? Haven't you found any ad-ware?? That, my friend, would be really weird. It's hard to find a machine with no adware installed in it.Quote:

whats your sys specs? (o/s , ram , disk space etc )

The problem is mainly html forms. I have no probs with this php.

I knew it!!Quote:

I would try:
Uninstall and Reinstall the latest IE... although that might not remove the dll thats causing it...it may overwrite it.
Uninstall and reinstall any Java machines... Microsoft, Sun... you may have a conflict here...
www.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
i think thats the site, but do a windows update ... u mite need a critical package:rolleyes:
I've had this for over a year though, I've not had programs installed that long, two different OS's (95 and 98 (98 atm)) and I'm still getting freezing forms. I don't think there could be a conflict unless it was a real stupid one. I don't know what to say, hehe. I'll try finding a "critical update", but my problem seems unheard of. :P
OS = Windows 98
Speed = 233mhz
RAM = 128mb
Disk Space = 6gb (left : 800mb)
its windowsupdate.microsoft.comQuote:

and yeah you should go there to get any current patches/updates as there are many for both 98 and IE
Look, its been like this for a year, I have tried many critical patches from there, EXACT SITE, but I've never had any success. I think this is as far as this post goes and I'm gonna have to suffer until they fix it. Thanks for your help. Ciao :(
well if it is an IE problem they might fix it.. but if it is a conflict or an OS problem you are going to be SOL... since MS doesn't support 98 anymoreQuote:

If it was an IE problem then everyone else would have it. Thanks, but no thanks. I've tried redownloading before, it does nothing for me. As for my OS, I've had this hard drive a month, and the day I installed it was ****ed, no explanation to it.
6G???!!!!! With only 800Mb left??!!?
Yuck! You might want to invest in a larger HD... the problem may be in the Temp Internet Files folder..... it needs to purge it more often because of htelimited disk space.....
But that's just one gnome's opinion.....
purge?
ya he is right.. while 800megs should be enough... you may want to clean our your temp internet files to keep things fresh..Quote:

goto tools -> internet options and it is on the first tab
im not sure that would matter, since me personally
i have win98
32mb of ram
500mhz
and ONLY a 4.3 gig hd
but im on cable... so that probably makes everything run smoothly :D
p.s. i do need to upgrade my ram badly tho :p
"purging" did nothing for me. The freeze is a "Not Responding" sort of freeze.
So you did the Delete Files and no go? What has stayed constant in your hardware, you mentioned switching OS's, harddrives, but nothing about perhaps your Cable Modem...
I guess if you could direct us to a site as an example... maybe we could verify its stricty you.
He has mentioned google.com.
YIPPEE!!!!!!! ITS FIXED!! SOME GUY PAUL SPITERI (GREAT GUY!!) GOT IT FIXED!! :D
WOOHOO!!!
To **VIJAYANAND** who had the same problem....
Tools -> Internet Options -> Content -> Click AutoComplete...
Untick all options saying "Use Autocomplete For"
- Web Addresses
- Forms
- User Names and Passwords on Forms
And its fixed. WOOHOO!!!
that easy eh? :D
well i think someone did mention it was the browser ;)
Yep, that easy! :)
SirB : I used to have this probelm too, using IE6 on Win2k. I too modifies the settings and got it to work, but forgeot exactly what I did. Thanks for the info... ;)
Hey good, I was wondering how I could turn off that list of porn addresses that always pops up when the wife goes typing somethin in the address bar...

lmaooooooo :D
No probs James Stanich, I too am glad that porn addresses don't pop up.
**VIJAYANAND** Please reply if you have read this thread!
I would guess then that when you go to type in some address or some value in the textbox, it then does an intensive search in some part of the registry to pattern match what you've just entered.
And if you have any virus scanners running, or any other weird applications, or if the processor is being used by some other process, then that searching could be extremely slow.
Just a thought.
Anyway this isn't really a General VB Q&A question so I'm moving the thread into General PC
Why is this question in chit chat and not general pc?
Good Point.Quote:
