wtf is up with my internet explorer
 
when the browser isn't showing the title of the website up at the top, it's only showing ONE LETTER in the first word of the title.

Like instead of GFY webmaster board it just says G

WTF? :helpme

If you're running XP (and have an XP disk), you can also reinstall IE.

Start->Run:

rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\Inf\ie.inf

Hey broke, really nice one :1orglaugh I have used firefox before and I don't really like it that much. Thanks for the suggestion though.

And I bet this is the first time you have ever seen a female on the intraweb?

I was giving them a hard time - not you. Guess I should have gone with a rollseyes emoticon.

:)

Don't know if you saw the reinstall instructions (as we may have been posting at the same time), but those may help as well if all else fails.

You didn't like Firefox? The tabbed browsing alone makes it so much better.

I agree and am wondering why you don't like firefox?? Is there like a real reason or are you just comfortable with using a billion Internet Explorer instances when working with multiple sites? Ever since I found firefox i've ditched MSIE completely. I even state so on most of my sites...here's an excerpt from one:

Nookster's Asians does not support Internet Explorer in any way shape or form. If you are having problems viewing the content on this site, we urge you to use the ultra-fabulous Mozilla FireFox Web Browser, which will enhance your online enjoyment by at least 500% (not to mention ensure proper viewing abilities for this site and millions of others)!

Christ --

You http://www.getfirefox.com cocksmokers are starting to get as bad as the http://www.apple.com/switch motherfuckers.

Similar type of asshat, I guess.

People are going to use what they want to use... when they have problems either (a) try to help them out or (b) STFU.

[/rant]


P.S. I use and happen to like firefox.

Well I'll be honest, my husband is "sort of" computer literate but he's so used to internet explorer that I would hate to change browsers on him I'm afraid he might get lost lol. So here is what I did.

I downloaded firefox but didn't make it the default browser and put it in a folder where he can't get confused by it LOL.

I finally fixed Internet Explorer. I had to go in the regedit and do it that way. It took me a little while but now it's back to normal. Something had my shit all jacked up.

FireFox is where all the action is.
