Using Avant Browser For Tabbed Browsing?
Jul 12, 2005While we're waiting for IE7 I thought I try a few of the other browsers. I especially wanted one with tabbed browsing. Does anyone here use and have a view on the Avant?

View 9 RepliesI always use the middle mouse wheel to click on links that way they come up in another tab. Today, it's not working and it's driving me nuts!I love searching by opening links this way! What happened to my mouse? It's a Dell, came with my computer, and hooks up in the serial port in back of the computer.

Firefox, I have tried setting it as my default browser in the settings option, and in "Set programs access and defaults". It works quite well... But can I get MSN Messenger to open up in that browser? When I click on my e-mails or MSN Space Etc. It opens up in Internet Explorer. Is there ANY way to open it in my default browser?

When I open Internet Explorer, my home page (www.google.com) opens.When it is finished loading, it automatically redirets to yahoo mail login page. The catch is, all my browsers windows that are open will be changed too. If I hit "stop" before the page is loaded, then hit "refresh", this action does not occur. I have Microsoft updates automatically downloade do my computer. I have the latest MacAfee anti-virus on my computer and have run the latest scan. I have run Microsoft beta spy-ware, ad aware and yahoo's version. I am not seeing anything.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having some problems with web browsing in Windows XP. I use Mozilla Firefox and whenever I try to browse for certain websites in google and any search engine, I get a list of a whole bunch of sites. When I click on them, however, I goto some weird links like monster ware or some other sites instead of what I intended and when I try to type in specific URLs, sometimes, it takes three reloads to load an entire page. I have a crappy wireless DSL that connects with 11.0 mbps and everything was fine with web browsing until a few days ago. Any ideas?

I've noticed that certain websites are not displaying properly; graphics are missing from some pages (not all graphics, just one or two). For example, the banner at the top of nytimes.com will not show. There doesn't seem to be an order to the missing graphics; it seems to be randomly blocking certain graphics, both jpg and gif. If I visit a new site, I do not know if I'm seeing all there is to see

View 4 Replies View RelatedI made a mistake of installing RC1 for IE7 because of tabbed browsing. now since that very day the browsing seems to have gone literally dead on my machine. I haven't done anything else apart from installing this RC1 for IE 7. I can hardly browse pages and all the time major errors are that it TIMED OUT.

View 14 Replies View RelatedRecently my computer has started to freeze up or 'hang' (I think that's the right term). I use my computer for internet access almost exclusively, be it browsing, internet telephony, downloading stock data, or cleaning the fish at the poker tables (but more on the poker app in a second). I am using FireFox with tabbed browsing; everything will be normal then suddenly I won't be able to tab back and forth between open windows. Clicking on any icon on my computer brings about no response. The solution is always the same I click control alt delete and bring up the windows security dialog box. I click on Task Manager and nothing happens. THEN - I click on Task Manager a second time and the TM pops up. The weird thing is I don't have to do anything else. Task Manager shows all programs as running and then I simply close Task Manager and all programs are again functioning normally. Somehow the process of opening the TM clears the freeze-up. This is happening with all programs EXCEPT- my poker client, which doesn't freeze up at all - I can play poker or chess through the ICC BlitzIn client and there is no freeze-up. It is only when I am browsing, or using the Skype internet telephony client, that this happens, and I believe it is only when the browser is up. I have run complete Trend Micro Scans which discovered a few problems including asujuja.exe. I fixed all problems found at Trend Micro Housecall. I ran a bunch of other scans and cleaners that I have. I am going to do a defrag of my HD tonight. I downloaded the latest version of FireFox and installed it over top of the older version I had but this didn't work. Does this ring any bells with anyone? Why does the Task Manager clear this blockage and why must I always click on Task Manager TWICE to get it to work (this is the weirdest thing about the problem).
View 14 Replies View RelatedI was downloading a online game (MapleStory) and browsing the internet while it was downloading. But then everything started lagging and stuff and then froze and I had to restart my computer. When I restarted it, all the icons on the desktop wouldnt work and had no picture. Also when I clicked start and looked under all programs nothings there. All the folders still there too but either its empty or same thing with the desktop. I was lucky enough to be able to get a browser up though and came on to this site through google. im using XP.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a problem that I just can't figure out. I 'll be on the internet, and when I click on a link(not every time), the page that I'm on just freezes. My mouse will indicate that it's busy, but it just stays like that. I first thought it was Spyware Terminator, so I uninstalled it. But to no avail. It did it again. Now remember, it's not every time. I keep a copy of my important files on an external drive, so reinstalling windows is nothing more that a pain in the behind. Which is what I did. I have an oem vesion of Windows MCE, which I've never had any problems with before. So here I am, thinking that I've taking care of the problem, when you guessed it, it did it again. And this is with barely anything installed, because I uninstall almost everything that MCE comes with. And this is where I'm at. I just can't figure out what's causing this to happen. I 've been coming to TSG almost every day for a very long time, because I really learn a lot and enjoy reading the many posts, and the members who respond to them. I didn't include a copy of Hijack this because it did it on a fresh install.

This also sometimes happens when I open the start menu. Occasionally, Dr Watson postmortem debugger is triggered and the computer freezes until I end the process from the task manager.

I have just reinstalled XP, and just installed SP2 for the first time, now the one glaring thing I have noticed immediately was my browser has slowed to an almost crawl. While sometimes, not often, the pages will load quickly, they usually take at least 10-15 secs, normally pages drop quite fast 2-4 secs for most as a guesstimate.

I removed and reconnected the battery to shut down and restart.Well, since then my computer has been unbearably slow. Every task from start-up (20 minutes, if at all) to loading Firefox (10 minutes) in awful. There are times where nothing even loads, all I see is my background and a cursor, nothing more.On the lucky chance that I do get everything up and running, it is slow to the point where even the clock is behind other clocks around me (cable box, other laptop) by 8-20 or so minutes.

The first time I launch any instance of Windows explorer and click the + next to "my computer" it takes about 3 minutes to respond - any subsequent browsing in that explorer window is fine. If I were to launch another windows explorer window - exact same behavior. If I go to save a file fom any app and I want to browse to a specific location - same process 3 minute wait. If I type the locations in lieu of browsing for them, no delay at all - only if browsing.
