Hi all. I usually use Firefox as my main browser, but I'm required to use IE (v9 on my Windows 7 PC) on just a few websites (like my online bank system). Since the last Windows update, IE9 also got some patches installed and since then I have gotten these blinky blinky scroll bars and little blank blinking boxes on the right side of the main window. After about 5 minutes they go away and IE stabilizes. Is anyone else seeing this buggy problem?

I gave up on IE about 6 months ago after an update. It started hanging on all sort of sites, and generally giving me fits. Went to Firefox and haven't looked back. The IT people here where I work want everyone to use Chrome, but I am happy with FF for now, so haven't tried Chrome. The IT folks are telling everyone to ditch IE.
Why would the bank's website insist on IE? The browser, I would think, would be transparent unless there's some security issue. My online banking woorks fine with FF.

Mike, I can only "guess" that my bank is using some non-standard HTML from M$ in their online forms. M$ does have some custom coding that only IE can read.  And, I agree with you about FF. I way, way prefer it and generally never have a problem with it. Also, it's completely CSS compliant while IE never has been.  Dee |

My only reluctance about using Chrome is that it is by Google. Call me a bit paranoid, but given how Google seems to want to gather info on everyone, tends to make me shy away from using Chrome.  Mike |

Being on the "net" is being publicly available anyway, no matter how much you try to convince yourself you aren't :-)
