ie9 website not responding

  1. I'd been getting a lot of these when opening up the forum (and others) of late and it seemed to be as the ad bar below the forum menus was attempting to display. Clicking recover web page was always a bit tedius and never reported what was wrong . Anyways it got annoying enough for me to get off my virtual butt to search for a fix and here it is You experience slow performance in Internet Explorer 9
    basically it stop the browser using the video card and uses cpu to render graphics, mine is a few years old sony viao with no driver updates for eons and the fix seems to have worked a treat for me. ps I do try firefox every now and again but find it slow to start and a bit clonky so prefer the look and feel of ie9.
     
  2. Have a look at Chrome, I haven't used IE or Firefox since finding Chrome a few years ago.
    I have heard good things about IE10 though, will try it when released.
     
  3. I've been getting this a lot lately, but only ever on this forum. I'm running ie9. Its not a speed issue as it does it on both of my laptops which are less than 1 year old and running i5 processors.

    It's got so annoying now that I only access this site now via tapatalk. I'm not going to install another browser just so that I can access one site.
     
  4. Arrrggghhh spoke too soon, still got the problem and its definitely getting stuck displaying the add banner just below the forum menus at the top of the page... note its not just this site some other forums are giving me the same problem, but they could be using the same code/ad service ...
     
  5. Chaps, I have no idea what the problem here could be. I can only recommend that to stop it you try firefox/chrome etc until I can find a fix (aka when E9 sort their browser out!).

    I found a workaround using this PrivacyChoice - IE9 TPL its the tracking protection feature of ie9. (wheres the whistle smiley)

    My guess is the ad banner hosts code is trying to do something (maybe with cookies) that Ie9 doesnt like and the ad provider is trying to get around it.

  7. Macca, happy days, and a good find :upyeah:

    It’s Google Adsense, the biggest ad provider. Strange that IE9 has issues with it??

  8. I wonder if goggle has found a "feature" in ie9 and is trying to show it up as a crap browser and thus get every one to give them all thier marketing intelligence , I mean swap to chrome.
