Title: tech question re: internet explorer
Post by: amcgrath1uk on January 15, 2007, 10:28:12 PM
Hi all

Am having a problem with my internet explorer. With more frequency it says the buffer is overrun and causes me to have to shut down everything ( luckily except the poker)

Does anyone have any ideas how to combat this?

Thanks

Don't use it  ;whistle;

What is the exact error message?

What version of IE and what version of windows?

Oh yeah... I'm on Windows XP home and IE7.. Firefox is something I will be doing when I have a bit of spare time..

The problem is it won't let me copy/paste anything and auto-shuts down so don't generally see what it says.. apart from it has detected a buffer overrun in Internet explorer

Why Firefox? What are the benefits? Is there a major difference?

It's better, it's open source, it's standards compliant and God kills a puppy every time you fired up IE
