    Browser lock up. Computer, connection or ???

    I noticed every once in a while that certain web pages just lock up my computer. Ctrl alt del dosent even work. This hasen't happened in a while until yesterday. Ive been trying to view a site which locks up everytime i get on it. Wha't the deal? Is this a connection issue? Is it time to scrap my dial up connection? Is it just my crappy PII 400Mhz 320Mb 10gig hd 16Mb video ram piece of crap? Is it the browser im running? Maybe none of the above? Thanks.

    What's your OS?
    I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2005. (Therefore, most code samples I provide will be based around the .NET Framework v2.0, unless otherwise specified)

    You may want to try using a different browser to visit the web-page, if you use IE try firefox, or visa versa.

    Is it only one particular site that locks up your computer, or is it a number of them?

    I've never had problems with IE and i've used it for years, since IE 3.

    I never had an issue with IE minus the nice -n- nasty cabs dled to ur comp silently containing hta's that advertise in your aim profile and all that good stuff

    FF has solved all of the problems in my life , minus my drinking problems, aids, world hunger, and having no gf
