Anyone else having difficulty posting on IE today?
I've not been able to post for hours.
I'm doing this on Firefox.

I use Chrome for this site Brisket, but I know there's just been a new version of IE released (which I haven't d/l yet) I don't know if that might help 
I always have trouble with IE Brisket, I use Chrome for here.
Not sure what browser she uses though...
I had lots of problems with this site and others using IE with Windows 7. I switched to Chrome and now use it for everything. I'd never use IE again it's sooooo slow. I know that doesn't help (sorry) just saying there are alternatives which many consider to be better anyway.
Thanks sprout and Dame Ann Baz and Prom
According to the reports I've read Prom, the new version of IE is sposed to be the best yet and has ironed out a lot of bugs

I've tried it sprouty. They're trying to turn it into Google Chrome 
they'll probably be hit with a lawsuit at some point. It's still slow and it still has huge compatibility problems with Windows 7 so it seems Microsoft designed it specifically to clash with their own operating system. Nice one MS 
I use Google Chrome all the time - was converted when we moved over, It's brilliant - can't see what's not to like TBH.

Oops! I'm still on Vista (and haven't had a prob with it) 
I may d/l IE 9 at some point
I use Firefox,ditched I.E. years ago.
I've bailed out of Safari here now, and use Chrome. Faster but a bit less user-friendly if you've been used to Safari. 
I use firefox for everything.
I have since discovered - by chance rather than logical thought and technological wisdom - that when the cog wheels appear if I clock on them and delete them, and then click on the "submit reply" box a second time, it accepts it immediately.
Strange.

Thanks Syd.
It's good to feel I am not alone. 
Been having a lot of bother today with IE in general, cant get onto Hotmail or MSN. As regards this site, i have been having bother posting, the cogs are birling round and around ...............
Thanks Skylark. My cogs are like yours - working hard but getting nowhere.
I am doing what Syd suggested above (^^^^) - "X out of cogs and click submit reply again."
Hi brisket, yes that seems to work , re the cogs x
Firefox for here, Opera for just about everywhere else. I.E. only when absolutely necessary. Tried Chrome, didn't like it, don't like the way Google applications always want to communicate with the internet in the background even when there's no Google applications running.
