kudos:1 | [IE] Problems with web sites.... IE8 seems to have lost functionality. The only thing new is that I dropped McAfee and installled Windows Security Essentials. Is this my problem???
Examples:
1) Clicking the "Preview/Attach" button here works, but clicking "+ upload attachments" does nothing. Nothing occurs. It works in Chrome.
2) On this web site (»www.silverrock.org/golf_teetime.html) clicking the date in IE does nothing. In Chrome calendar drops down.
It is as if IE has lost some of its functionality. I tried to update to IE9 - but it somehow did not take!!
Does any know what is going on?? Reinstall IE8??? |

OK I try to download IE8, but humorously there is NO version for Windows 7! I downloaded the one for Vista. I hope that is right... This is 64 bit. |

ADD: My gadgets (on the Desktop) are broken too!! What is up with that? Is they related to IE?
ADD #2: Adobe Flash is no longer working, and if I try to Download it in IE, nothing happens - it won't download!!
____________
This is totally crazy. I cannot download and reinstall IE8 - it tells me it does not run on Win7. I download and install IE9 and it doesn't work - I am still in IE8. I cannot uninstall IE - there is no option under Add/Remove programs. Catch 22.... |

I was forced to upgrade to IE9.... No choice. The gadgets only partially work. The clock is back, but the calendar and the weather do not.... |

Re: [IE] Problems with web sites.... Some sites will not work with Active Scripting and Cookies disabled.
Not all sites will tell u so and you'll b staring at the same page over and over. This is from my own experience. |
