Was just wondering if anyone could help me. Everytime i go to facebook.com my IE tells me 'theres a problem and IE will close and re-start'. Has anyone had this problem before? Ive gone to the microsoft help, downloaded everything, did all they said, ive even lost my favourites and history because of this.... can anyone help?
As with all IE problems, my first recommendation is to stop using it and install firefox.
If that's not an option (is it a work machine?) then have you upgraded to IE8? Also, try clearing the cache and cookies (Tools -> Options -> Delete Files and Delete Cookies). Run a virus scan, download and install Spybot to make sure your machine is clean.
Does this happen on any other sites?
Did you install any Facebook apps? Some of them are horribly developed.
cheers for the help lads, yeah its only on Facebook i have this problem. Dont think i downloaded any apps from it. tried to clear the cookies before, didnt work. Am considering just installing Firefox. Does it take long to download??
No - it is free, easy and fast to dowload, and you will never regret doing so.Originally Posted by Rovers1
just did it and it works, sweet guys, thanks for that!!
Glad to hear it, IE is riddled with bugs, Firefox far and away the best browser out there.
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
yep, go with FireFox.
Sometimes some web applications used in companies to see what you are surfing cannot pickup what you surf via Firefox. Did I say that?
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist thinks it will change; the realist adjusts the sails.
have gotten used to FF now, but i still have the same problems with Facebook and a few other sites.
Google Chrome is the way to go.
