Browser

Hey guys,
OK Can someone help me please? It's my browser. OK, I tried to log onto here tonight 5 times, and 5 times the screen froze at the index page; I couldn't even log out or anything so I turned it off by removing the battery. Yeah I know that's wrong to do that. But anyways, does anyone know of a better browser, or does anyone know why this happened?
Feedback would be great.
Oh and I'm currently using Yahoo! browser, atm, if that helps.

Chat Avenue always freezes up and kicks you off the site temporarily. It happens to me and a lot of other people on here.
I don't know what to tell you about the browser thing. ???

Doesn't happen to me. Blame the Internet or the Lap Top. Hell it's probably chat - avenues advertisemtns that do ti. they have 390582305 that load at once.

When was your last virus and spyware scan? It could be one thing that is stopping it.

It sometimes takes me a while for it to load, and it freezes on me also, but it'll come back in.

that happens to me, or has been happening to me, a lot lately.

and i keep getting redirected when i go to certain threads. it drove me crazy to the point where i almost thought someone had a code in their signature that sent me there.

it's probably just because, like they said, c-a has like a billion advertisements.

The Yahoo! browser?

Wow...does anyone still use that. I never knew they did one until now but a quick google search suggests the browser is pretty much ignored by the developers now, and prone to script errors.

It's probably one of the ads using scripts that is locking your browser up, but still, you should look at using a different browser since html standards and tags do change..

soooo.....

Thanks Rakka. I got that and it works okay now.
And yeah, I got the laptop in March.. and the Yahoo! browser worked great up until yesterday, but I got Firefox now. Thanks for all your help, guys.

I found out they do a new version of the Yahoo! browser. I think it's bundled with some BT internet connections. That might be similar to yours.

Damn, that's another browser to make sure web pages work in =/

You learn something new every day around here

Firefox. Much better to use then any other browser (except Apples Saffari maybe?)

Firefox > Opera > IE > Yahoo.

It's C-A . . not the browser.
