IE7 sucks!!

This is the only browser which closes for absolutely no reason and then
reloads another instance as though it is doing us a favor. Many times I would
be typing something in the web and the browser will close. I will lose
everything I typed.

And second, why is that when I view youtube, IE7 slows down drastically? If
I try to open another tab with youtube, it takes a loooooooooooooooooooooong
time.

These are but a couple of crappy things in IE7. Windows Vista is a major
major disappointment. Its crappy start to finish.

Then don't use either.

Re: IE7 sucks!!

Uh huh. This is a newsgroup of your fellow users, who try to help each
other with questions about Internet Explorer. (Sounds like you could use
some help.)

Your problem is often caused by installing an incompatible add-on.

Start your troubleshooting with this:

"Internet Explorer stops responding, stops working, or restarts"
http://support.microsoft.com/gp/pc_ie_intro

-or-

1- Start IE 7 with no add-ons.

Start Internet Explorer from a shortcut on your desktop with the
following target (don't forget the quote marks):

"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -extoff

If the problem no longer occurs, one (or more) add-ons was causing the
problem.

2- Reset IE 7 to its original configuration.

Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab > under Reset Internet Explorer
Settings, click Reset.

If the problem no longer occurs, one (or more) incorrect configuration
settings was causing the problem. [If you want to continue to use any of
your add-ons after a reset, you may have to reinstall them.]

3- Problems with IE 7 can also be caused by the presence of viruses or
other malicious software.

There is little wrong with Vista and/or IE7. Maybe your attitude needs an
overhaul?

What if you go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools |
Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
