Browser Internet Speed
Oct 18, 2008I'm new here with a problem that has popped up last night. Up until last night my web pages and everything was loading up in my Firefox browser pretty fast. Today things are loading up slow and with I go on to a news source to watch a video...the videos stop and go making the news video not worth watching. A couple of minutes I was looking at something on here where it said to use "cmd" command to get into something. It was set on "ultrarestrictive" and I changed it to "normal" but haven't seen much difference in how things are working. The other day I downloaded UTorrent on my computer but today I uninstalled it. Could UTorrent have messed something up?

Slow Internet Browser
Apr 21, 2008I somehow fixed my problem before, but then I reformatted my laptop which I regret now. I've downloaded all the vista upgrades and even tried turning off my firewall. But no matter if I'm using Firefox or IE7 it takes waay too long to load a page. I googled this and I've tried doing the "netsh interface disable" command but that doesn't really work either.

Feb 2, 2010This week, Net Applications released their January browser market share report. Their report shows that Internet Explorer 8 is not only the most popular browser on Windows with 27.9% usage share, but that it now has 25.6% of market share across all OS’s on a worldwide-weighted usage share basis (data provided by Net Applications). We launched just less than a year ago, so it’s both humbling and thrilling to see so many people choose our product so quickly – making it the most popular browser of choice worldwide.
There are many reasons people choose which browser to use. Most people want to know and trust the company behind their browser. And people are looking a browser that protects them – and their privacy online. In an August 13th, 2009 post on the IEBlog, we announced Internet Explorer 8’s SmartScreen Filter had hit over 80 million malware blocks. But that was back in August. As of today, Internet Explorer 8 has done over 350 million malware blocks. You can see Internet Explorer 8’s SmartScreen Filter in action in this blog post. Internet Explorer 8’s SmartScreen Filter blocks malware over 2 million times a day...........
Alternative Browser: Concerning The Internet Explorer - New Zero-Day Exploit In-the-wild?
Dec 13, 2008Concerning the Internet Explorer - New Zero-Day exploit in-the-wild, besides applying the workarounds advised, I've also seen it recommended to maybe use an alternative browser until this has been fixed. I've only ever used IE7 and would like some advise please on which other browser I could use on Vista that would be the most secure. I've been looking at Opera, Firefox and maybe K-melon or Google Chrome, but from a security point of view, don't know which to choose.

Apr 10, 2010I had to re-formal my hard drive due to some difficulties I have been having. When I restored my original OS I found that I had 2 Internet Explorer icons. I would like to be able to use the X32 bit version of IE as my default browser. How can I accomplish this? I have one game provider that runs only on X32 bit, and I would like to be able to download their games. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium Edition X64 bit SP2.
View 9 Replies View RelatedDownloaded Mozilla Firefox Internet Browser Ask Permission To Continue
Dec 2, 2007I downloaded Mozilla Firefox Internet Browser a short while ago and it was working fine. But then my Vista automatically updated and I think that was where the problem started. I think in the update it heightened the security on my computer, not necessarily a bad thing but annoying because every time I launch Firefox it has to ask my permission to continue.
I think this is because it is trying to access the internet and is not microsoft software. I have looked it up in windows help and have a slight suspicion that it might be to do with something called "user account control". It helps stop unauthorized changes to your computer. Is there any way to convince it that Firefox isn't harmful and make an exception for it?
Boostspeed Any Good?
Jan 10, 2008Right contstantly the computer is usting between 80 and 85 % without me doing anything, except typing here. Diskeeper 2008, Outlook consume alot of memory, Search Index, Svchost (some 10 different system programs), etc. So i need more Ram. But at the same time i was thinking of buying "Boostspeed" or a program like that to clear memory, so a shutdown is not needed every day. Anyone familiar with this kind of program?

View 9 Replies View RelatedThis Is How SP1 Went. Good. Let's Have Your Feedback.
Mar 18, 2008This is how it went.
1. Had to do windows update three times before it got them all. I had just done the other day the updates for march. The first update had 8 updates in it. Update number two had one update in it. Update number three had one update in it.
2. Had to do the WGA and did pass.
3. Then the SP1 update showed up in the Window Updates and started the download. Size was about 175.mb.
4. Had to reboot after the install. During windows shut down it stop to do some more installing of the SP1 update. It has 3 stages.
A. Stage one went somewhat fast.
B. Stage two went real slow up to about 12% then went fast and stop and stalled at 100% for some time.
C. Never seen Stage three.
5. Os rebooted and during the restart of windows just before the desktop shows up it started installing Stage three and went somewhat fast. After the desktop came on they was a lot of hard drive activity.
6. The first thing that I seen is that AVG did not restart. I just started it my self and all was good.
Things I seen after install and reboot.
I now have this icon in the lower right about some Customer Experience program that want's to run but you have to say yes to turn it on.
Under the Device manager I now have an error under Built-in-Infrared Device. ( No big deal)
Under the Task manager my Processes came back up to 54 and memory is running at 50% up from what I had it dwon to, 41 processes running & Physical Memory is 33% so it looks as if it went back in and turned some things back on or added some things.
I will have to google all the processes to find what is what.
So far this is all I have seen but then have not been running the SP1 but just a few. I will post as I find more things good or bad. I figure it will take a few reboots and some system maintenance to get the boot back up to par.
AOL Desktop Any Good?
Mar 11, 2009I saw the demo video and it looks like just an interface that assists "computer newbies" to work internet related items. Does it offer anything unique? Is it worth installing? Because I remeber it used to put a lot of background tasks that do all sorts of things. I know computers are more powerful nowadays but does it still noticably clog up your task manager?

Good Idea To Go From 32 Bit Vista To 64 Bit?
Dec 2, 2007I thought i'd give 64 bit a try, what a bad decision it's terrible. I've had nother but blue screeens and other problems with it.
Think i'll revert back to the good old trustworthy 32 bit, never had any problems with it.
Best / Good Drive Imager?
Apr 5, 2008best / good drive imager? I have Acronis 11 TI, but it started hanging on me yesterday under Vista. it always hangs for 40 secs or so running standalone. I tried Paragon Drive Backup 8.51, it imaged okay but wanted 2 hrs plus to restore 5gb *Acribuis tajes 8 min) - I guess It's using PIO1... (did not send them a note).
I tried rtt r-drive image and it imaged fine but I couldn't boot the damn Linux CD even with bios sata set to IDE/disa/legacy. (sent them a note) Tried casper but it images 1:1 and I don't have the HD capacity at the moment (sata 160 and IDE 80) and prefer the compressed images that I can put to DVD occasionally if I so choose (and I do) Latest PQDI on torrent is 7 which is flagged as Vista non-compatable anyway
(I didn't try it).
I used to use ghost but a while back when I upgraded, the boot cd caused a bluescreen because it wanted to call home on an intel NIC, so I went to Acronis.

May 14, 2009I was tooling around Bioshock last night. I am worried about Bioshock 2 being not as good. I'm a story guy, System Shock 2 and Bioshock 1 having almost identical story flow really struck a chord with me, so I am hoping (without Kevin Levine) that BS2 will be just as good. The Big Sister character looks awesome, and you get to be a Big Daddy screams "win". Hopefully the story will match the awesomeness. Oh well, if it sucks at least there's always Brutal Legend.
