Forum problems, not just with this one either

[Cerberus]

Whenever I visit forums, regardless of which it is, I encounter problems. First of all, they scroll very slowly, and with a jerky movement. Secondly, there is a problem with typing. When I type, the sentence doesn\'t come out all at once. The curser moves along, without printing any words, then only when it reaches the end of the line, they appear.

This is beginning to get on my tits, is anyone else having this prob? Does anyone know what is causing it, furthermore, does anyone know how to fix it?

Its your computer.

I had a problem like that.

Defrag and check for errors

Already done it, nowt happened.

Check for virus\'s?

Whats your internet speed, that could be it.

Defragn\' mine solved it.

I\'ve defragged, run scan disk, run anti virus (nothing detected), deleted all cookies and removed all cached temporary internet files, but it\'s STILL f0cking happening.

It\'s the most annoying shit ever, someone must know why this is happening, and I\'m bolloxed if I know.

PS. Sorry for the language, but it really IS pissing me off.

CAN SOME HELP ME PLEASE?

I\'ve done everything Spud said, but it\'s still happening. If anything, it\'s getting worse. It\'s taking between 10 and 15 seconds for each line to appear after I\'ve finished typing it.

What you need to do is ALT / CONTROL / DELETE. And see what\'s taking up 99% of your cpu\'s time.   This is on xp / 2000.
Then disable it. You may find it\'s a memory leak from a buggy program

THere is nothing running apart from ICQ. I close all backgroung progs after the comp is fully started up. I know it\'s not ICQ that\'s the problem because it does it when it\'s not running. It only happens on forums and certain search engines. Regardless of how slow/fast I type, the words only appear at the very end of the sentence, once it is complete. At the moment, it\'s averaging at one letter every three seconds, and it seems to be getting slower and slower. It\'s taken me the best part of 10 minutes to type this out

Cerberus, try using windows update. i had a similar problem befor then i went to windows update and their was a patch for ie6 and it fixed the prob.

I got the patch, but it\'s still not fixed it, the exact same thing is still happening.

It sounds like a runaway process. What is your processor and or memory usage when this occurs? If it is high. What process is running high?

Have you checked for spyware?

If not I would recommend downloading Ad-aware 6.0 and Spybot seek & destroy 1.2. I run these everyday and they always find some tracking cookies or sometimes something even worse.
