    :cry Wondered if someone could help me.

    Im having huge problems with IE8.. Basically a few weeks ago it kept crashing, I always run Malywarebytes and Super Anti Spyware along with Avast and no problems found. I fixed the crashing issue by resetting all the advanced setting back to default.

    Anyhow since then it seemed slower when first opening and also when opening new windows. Then at times ive been unable to type in form fields (not all). Having problems typing here so this is a cut and paste job. I say cant type but what I mean is, im typing but only half the letters are entered so have to enter letters a few times before they appear on screen. I have googled and found a few things the main being uninstalling IE8 and reinstalling. That does seem to have helped but it still isn't 100%.. Still slow and still the typing issue. Have also tried reregeristing some dlls but that's made no difference.

    Problem is only related to IE, Firefox is ok. But if I have both browsers open at the same time then Firefox hangs untill IE is closed

    Ive also disabled all add-ons and reinstalled Flash but again still have the problem. Ive googled many times but now at a loss for what to try next

    Anyone have any ideas..

    Im running XP on a Acer E380 AMD x2 4800 desktop
