Blue Moon 1,113 Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 I have tried all of everyone's solutions to no avail. I am not going to change my browser. I am not having problems with any other websites, so I am at a loss as to what to do next. Please keep the suggestions coming. It is still running slowly and I am still getting the message about the long script. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anchorman 0 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Out of the blue, yesterday, my lap top started running really slowly on Gersnet. It isn't happening when I am doing anything else, just on Gersnet. Can anyone suggest how I might get things back to normal? I've also had a problem over the last couple of days with a box coming up saying a script is trying to run that will slow down my browser. I'm accessing on IE8 which I can't upgrade as the laptop I'm using in 'locked down'. Had no problems until recently. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is probably an issue for the site administrators. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I had problems with internet banking and accessing websites. I still get IE trying to open sites, so I right click and open in Chrome Google. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you dont want to change your browser, and neither did I, but I downloaded Firefox as well which I use for Gersnet, and continue to use IE for other things (although I'm starting to find Firefox more stable all round). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juancornetto 1 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 VBulletin doesn't work great on Internet Explorer, it's just one of those things. Change to a sleeker browser or tweak IE to work quicker. In the settings there will be an option to "Pre load website data" or along those lines, make sure you've selected that and then each time you open a Gernset page it will use the cached (stored) version as a template and then refresh the latest version in the background. I dumped IE a long time ago so I'm not familiar with the latest settings menu jargon but give it a go. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 1,113 Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 Thanks, everyone. Have gone back to chrome as can sync my phone and tablet to it. has resolved my issue, but I still don't get why this just happened suddenly ?? Never mind, it is sorted now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Firefox Loyal!!!! I dumped IE more than 10 years ago now I believe, and have no intention of going back any time soon. Try running Superantispyware free edition and see if that helps. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
