Slow and sluggish

Post by hotmetal1000 »

Is anybody else having troubles with the site after upgrading to the internet explorer? It is slow and sluggish for when scrolling down the page and typing.

Unfortunetly, yes. :P

It could be due to many factors, such as - Lower end computer + heavier IE8, or heavier IE8 + website theme/skin/design - etc.


Anyone else having this problem?

Ok just used the compatibility view for older websites which has fixed the typing speed but the website is still a little slow with scrolling.

I use deepnet which works great for me, its basicly a tabbed version of the older internet explorer which I prefer and I am not getting any of the lagging problems.

I have IE7 and I don't have a problem. I have IE8 on the other computer and don't like it so didn't download it on here.
