It's a bit weird but here is what happens. I hit "start new topic" or "reply" and it loads up, gets to a certain point, then the whole window freezes, internet explorer completly shuts down, and I have to log in again. This only happens on this computer. I have to wait for the page to load, but stop it before everything is loaded, and then it lets me type and then I hit the post button and it works. I'm starting to think it's the attachment manager on the bottom. Is there a way to make that optional? The computer is hooked up to dial up (one problem it has, which i think contributes) and I use internet explorer. Firefox would take around 4 hours to download on this crappy dial up. On my computer at my mom's though it works fine, on IE or Firefox, but thats also a cable modem. I don't know if anybody has any idea what's going on with it. For right now I have no problem hitting the stop button at the right time to post, I was just seeing if there was a way around it, and maybe see if other people have the same problem.

Firefox takes 2 hours to download on that computer. It runs on old, slow dial up. Being a former computer nerd/website owner I know the greatness of firefox. In fact, I'm using it right now. It would just take too much time on that computer, and I don't have the time to do it, maybe my girlfriend does or something. I hate internet explorer too, so I guess I'll just deal when using the junker.
