    Thumbs down Internet Explorer 9 DOESN'T Work Here

    I've been off the forum for several weeks because suddenly I was unable to post any more! I narrowed it down to the only thing being different was that I had upgraded my computer to IE9.

    I finally found a computer still using IE8 to see if I could get in, and all is as it was...

    I don't know how to uninstall IE9 from my computer, but unless the forum gets upgraded, I'll either have to borrow a computer like I am doing now, or move on.

    The symptoms that I experienced are as follows: I could sign in and read the thread as normal, and when I tried to reply to a post, I would type my reply and hit the submit button. After hitting submit, it would erase all of my text and give me an error messege saying my post was too short and I need a minimum of 2 characters! Isn't that special

    Maybe the folks who run this forum are aware of this and are already working on it... I sure hope so.

    Internet Exploder is generally terrible.

    http://google.com/chrome

    http://getfirefox.com

    Both of these are free and will keep you safer.

    Thanks Hoosier,
    I found a way to uninstall IE9 and plan to keep it that way.
    I will explore the idea of going to the others you mentioned... This old dog has a hard time changing

    This website works fine in IE9.

    Posting this as we speak (not really speak) on Server 2008 R2 with security turned up. I just added to the trusted sites list.

    People blame MS and IE for EVERYTHING.

    I haven't used IE in over 10yrs. Recently, I was looking at a CC processor and they required IE to access their gateway. That was pretty much a deal breaker. Who writes a program to only work on IE?

    Been using PC/Mac versions of Firefox with no problems. Plus there are some great add-ons. No stability issues.

    I had this problem too. Sorry I didn't post up about it. IE9 is just an upgrade for IE8. To go back to IE8 go to control panel, then uninstall a program, then on the upper left under tasks click on view installed updates, find microsoft internet explorer 9, click on it then click uninstall.

    From what I've read, IE9 is a beta program and is full of bugs.

    Default Problem Posting with IE9

    I upgraded the wife's PC to IE9 and I noticed today that I could not post to the site when using IE9. I can at a title to a post or PM , but the message box is grayed out. I can type in the message box, but when I push submit no text registers with the site and I get an error. I'm writing this on my PC with IE7 and it works fine. Has anyone else had a problem?
