Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
My Firefox browser seems to be broken. I will type in a message, but the letters won't appear right away, but rather seem to catch up all at once after a bit. It also keeps freezing and saying "Not responding." Does anyone have any idea why this might be? An d what could fix it?
I did a CCleaner sweep, and scanned for Viruses and Spyware. The Spyware scanner came back positive, but I couldn't get anything to work, and upon scanning again, the spyware was gone or undetected, so now I'm a bit paranoid that's messing with my browsers.
Tell me is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise.
What extensions and plugins do you have installed? I've had this problem repeatedly, and it's always come down to extensions. Unfortunately, Flash is a big culprit, and you probably don't want to disable that outright. User Agent Switcher, Javascript, Quick Time, and Acrobat were other ones I've had this problem with.
Extensions: Adblock plus, 7 different versions of Java console, Kapersky URL advisor, Microsoft.net framework assistant (don't think I installed that one), NoScript.
Plugins (I don't remember getting any of these): Adobe Acrobat, itunes application detector, java deployment toolkit, java (tm) platform SE, microsoft office 2003, microsoft office live plug in , mozilla default plug in, quicktime plugin, shockwave flash, silverlight plugin

Microsoft sticks that .net framework one in, you can safely kill it. I bolded a few others like the MS Office ones that most likely came in with other software. Silverlight comes in from Windows Update depending on your settings regarding optional updates.
The Java consoles aren't needed to actually run Java, nor is the deployment toolkit. Everything in italics, I'd say consider disabling it unless you actually make use of it - there are some sites that use quicktime and silverlight, but flash is more common, and if you disable the acrobat plugin, it'll just download PDF files and you can open them in acrobat reader itself.
Still, flash is the big one for this stuff, and it's probably the least dispensable thing on the list

The only solution is to get rid of flash. Not an option for me, so i switched to chrome.
Check out my band, click the banner.
Yeah, windows 7.
That usually fixes things for me.
Firefox, not Windows 7, right?

Correct.
I should have been more clear.
