I found a bug in IE 5.5, wow i am shocked, again

[RayEarth]

I go to this site www.gamespot.com & then when i try to go to any other site, It just refreshes this webpage & do nothing else, the only way for me to get out is to close & reopen IE 5.5, any having this problem? it would seem like there's no fix since i have the latest update of every software on my computer, good microsoft, i knew this was final when i found a bug.

 

[hubbs]

For one this shouldn't be in general hardware and for 2 no this doesn't happen for me

 

[zippy]

hahahaha, same thing here!!!

 

[Prodigy^]

"For one this shouldn't be in general hardware"

eat $hit bitch,

[Budman]

Prodigy^,

Chill out man.

 

[utopia]

LOL, same here where is RC5 ?

Why does everyone use Internet Explorer? It's the Bastard Child of Microsoft. Sure it might look better and feel better, but you're supporting anti-competitive products.

 

[HannibalX]

ALL PRODUCTS ARE ANTI COMPEDATIVE! IT IS THE GOAL OF EVERY COMPANY TO COMPLETELT SELL OUT OVER THEIR FOES! TO TAKE OVER THE ENTIRE MARKET!

NOW PEOPLE ARE PISSED BECUASE MS HAS ACCOMPLISHED THIS!?!? BAH GO SHUV OFF!

 

[BoberFett]

Hahaha Trinitron. True, how true.

Perhaps if Netscape hadn't gone from there wonderful 3.x browser to that utter piece of @#%! 4.x, I'd have stuck with them.

I don't give a rat?s ass who make Internet explorer. IE works better then Nutscrape, so I'll continue to use it.

BTW - It doesnt happen to me.

 

[GroundOO]

Happens to me too, maybe instead of bickering we can try to find similarities and actually accomplish something. I'm on win98 (not SE) I just downloaded 5.5 a couple minutes ago. 56k crappo win modem. This is my parents puter, havent tried mine yet. (btw, whats different about gamespot than other pages?)

 

[Sillyputty]

At least IE doesn't track your surfing habits ala AOL/Nutscape.

 

[NFS4]

Doesn't happen to me

 

[arthurb1]

Netscape also has this little problem called crashing What does 5.5 give over 5.0 or 5.01? I just got is an really see no differences (maybe they made the buttins small like in 2k? I had mine like that anyway before.)

 

[Mday]

same thing here also. strange

i'm on win98se which had 5.5 beta installed. now the final release.

 

[Sir Fredrick]

Netscape Navigator 4.08 hasn't crashed on me in just about forever. And when it does, at least it doesn't kill my whole system
And of course, I don't have that problem either.

 

[piku]

RayEarth, that happens to me now and I have the beta!

Their trying to be too damn fancy for their own good.

 

[yata]

I wince when people call Netscape Nutscrape. This goes out to all you IE-infatuated members. Understand monopoly abuse.

 

[Eug]

I have the same problem, but then again I've never tried it in IE 5.0

I'm on DSL, Windows 98 first edition.

 

[Pocatello]

I usually don't install MS products after a couple of months. I agree, this should be in the software forum.

 

[Freeze]

I have it too. Win98 first edition. IE5.5 Cable modem. Custom upgrade from IE5.01

 

[Budman]

It doesnt happen to me.

running win98SE

 

[RayEarth]

hmmm.. so others have this problem also, well I do have win98SE, & i do see others having in the original win98, the ones that don't have it, are you using win95 or win2k instead of win98? I was running IE 5.01 with the SP1 & it didn't have this problem nor did the original IE 5.0, but only when upgrade to 5.5 beta & final gave me this problem, that's why i do want ms to stop putting a browser in the os so we don't have to always use their newest browser. I tried the 120 trial final version of win me & the IE 5.5 in that has the same thing too, so remember when people ask you why you brought win me? just yell out "I want the IE 5.5 problems!"

good citizen of the world:I wonder how easy it is to change a number to make something final?

far away in an deep unground lab of small proportions...
unknown guy 1: should we release a final this week?
unknown guy 2: no.. wait a few more days & well just give it a .0400 or .3 or .whatever it may be & we'll just say final..
unknown guy 1: that's good thinking bi.l..
unknown guy 2: SMACK(a sound that came from the impact from unknown guy 2 fist to MAJOR contact of unknown guy 1 head) ... fool... don't ever use my name in a conversation, got that!
unknown guy 1: sorry, please forgive my stupidy sir.
unknown guy 2: it will NOT go unforgiven until you release another software with within 3 months with just the same magtitude of bugs or ELSE!
unknown guy 1: right away sir.
decision ends... the 2 laugh & walk their seperate directions...

also true that this may not be a software forum... fellow readers..BUT.. the best way to reach people is to make your topic number 1, & i can't find a higher spot than spot 1 in general hardware section, if it was at the first spot of software section, it's way too low, most of the time i am really tired by the time i get down there, & then my IE 5.5 just don't work properly that low.

 

[Angrymarshmello]

Considering this isnt about hardware in general this post doesn't belong here

 

[Ulysses]

I just installed IE 5.5 under Win 98SE and I've had problems at that page too. I can get out of it by using my mouse's 'back' button but not the 'back' button on the menubar.
