IE freezes

Subject: IE freezes Mon 01 Dec 2008, 6:49 pm

Ok I've only noticed this with internet explorer. I have at&t yahoo browser, with IE 7. For about a month or so I've had the problem that when i'm typing, every once in awhile it will just stop typing like it froze. My mouse will still work but nothing will type for a couple of seconds. Then it will go back to normal. I have XP professional SP2. 2 gigs of ram. I've just started using firefox and I have not had the problem. I just don't know too much about firefox and I had everything set up the way I liked it in IE 7 so I would like to keep that working.

Close IE. Go Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools, and click on Internet Explorer (no add-ons). Or you can try the method below:

1)Open Internet Explorer 7.

2)Choose Tools from the menu.

3)From the resulting drop-down menu, choose Manage Add-ons, followed by Enable or Disable Add-ons....

4)In the Manage Add-ons window, choose Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer from the Show: drop-down box.

5)The resulting list will show every add-on that Internet Explorer 7 has ever used. If an add-on is causing the problem you're troubleshooting, it will be one of the add-ons listed here.

6)Select the first add-on listed, then select the Disabled radio button in the Settings area at the bottom of the window, and click OK.

7)Click OK if prompted with a "For changes to take effect, you might need to restart Internet Explorer" message.

8)Close and then reopen Internet Explorer 7.

9)Test whatever activities in Internet Explorer were causing the problem you're troubleshooting here.

If the problem is not resolved, repeat Steps 1 through 7, disabling one more add-on at a time until your problem is resolved.
