No problems here using IE on my laptop. However I do have very similar issues (header only, multiple refreshes, etc) when using my crackberry to browse which suggest it is more on the user side than IB/OSO.

Haven't had IE issues on OSO, but plenty at other sites. Go Opera or Firefox. IE sucks, espcielly the IE9. What a piece of sh!t

I unofficially always recommend the "anything but IE" approach. Especially recent releases of IE have been problematic.

This does look to be IE isolated but I'll pass it on to tech, thanks folks.

Just downloaded Firefox, fixed the delay and all the refreshing problems.

I think the mods needs to change the title of this thread to "What's wrong with IE? No need to have it look like a OSO issue.

Just sayin'

Only reason I said OSO is that I only go to about 5 sites all the time for my info and news and OSO is the only one I have a problem with. I have IE9 on one computer and 8 on the others. My main computer is and old lap top with windows xp so I'll have to see what I can get to run on it. I need to get a tablet of some form cuz all I do is read on the net anyway.

I renewed again, but tired of getting the same shirt every time. What happened to the nice t-shirt graphics we used to get??? I think I even got a few Freeze Frame CDs when I first came to the forums.

No problems loading with IE here...
