For some weeks now my I.E.8 has been freezing up.
I've tried disabling add-ons plus downloading a Microsoft tool that scans for problems, which didn't show any, so decided to try the Beta I.E.9.
Once installed all was fine until I came to the PCv forum and it wont let you post. You can read the posts and open a box to reply to a post but there is no cursor in the reply box.
If by right clicking and selecting 'select all' a cursor appears and you can type although the font is small. The cursor doesn't work for highlighting text/deleting either. Neither can you type or edit a quote. The arrow keys did work.
Eventually I managed to start a new topic in Our Website and typed most of what I've posted here. I then clicked 'save' and a new reply box opened but my post wasn't saved .. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr
I have now done a system restore back to I.E.8 and all is fine again although I doubt if the browser freezing up is cured.
So beware if you are thinking of trying I.E.9.
<<< see, even the smilies work now although they didn't in I.E.9.
