My friend, the simplest "fix" I can offer you is thus: Switch web browsers. IE had numerous problems in it's previous version, which, while very annoying, I let by due to the fact that IE was the only browser I had ever used, and therefore, was comfortable with using. My final straw with it was when I could not access the comments on the new site. I switched to Firefox, and while I miss the simplicity and ease of use of the Favorites and History functions of IE, I am FAR better off in every other area of the Firefox web browser.

Don't be afraid of change, TB (despite your rabid Obamaphobia). Switch to something else. Convert!
