northernjohn Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 For the last several days I have been having hit and miss with explorer Internet. Every thing is fine for a short time and then it will freeze up on me for half a minute to a minute before going back to normal. Is any one else experiencing this problem with them?

Rotweiler Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Use FireFox - NOT IE which is very biuggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Try Right clicking the task bar and click on "Task Manager". You will be able to view your CPU usage and perhaps see if some program is running in the background hogging your memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicog Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 The OP should look at what Addons are running and see if temporarily disabling them solves the problem. That's the first place I'd look. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/manage-add-ons#ie=ie-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pib Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I bounce back and forth in using Chrome and IE11 depending on what I'm doing and the sites I visit. Both are working fine. You sure you are just not experiencing a very slow internet connection? Is it just to international sites or to domestic sites also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topt Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 OP I have had a few issues with this but after a short while it is back to normal. Sometimes I get a notice saying it has to close (but it reopens straightaway) due to an app crash. Not a biggie for me so just carry on. But it is very, very intermittent.

masuk Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Internet a bit dodgy last night in Chiang Mai. No access for quite a while. A good time to clean up old files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coulson Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 It is no harm to try firefox or chrome. I haven't used IE for years and never looked back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crabdog Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Although I think IE has improved somewhat I much prefer Chrome. I like Firefox too but late versions have had some issues with memory leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe something in the cache that's causing grief. Try clearing out all the temporary files, cookies and the rest of the gumph all browsers collect. Or even Reset it.

Thanks Chicog but do that regularly - as I say it is very, very intermittent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
