I have been having this strange problem with IE for almost a year now, but I put it off because I would use Fire Fox. Fire Fox has had absolutley no problems for me, however to use certain things like Tripod's text editor for websites, I can only use IE pluggins.
so here's the problem, internet explorer runs fine, however anything requiring Java (or atleast I think thats the problem) doesn't work. The best way to explain this would be this. Go to MLB.com. Normal computers will see the (atleast I think they are) java features like on the left, the blue/black scoreboard with teams showing who will be facing who. You should also see a slide show in the center. Also, if I wave the mouse over the "Team Sites," a dropdown should happen
When I go there via IE, I can only see the Headlines portions on the right with the blue links. Where the scoreboard is, I only see the grey background which it overlaps, as if it was removed. Also the slideshow is missing, just a white square. Also The drop down menu for team sites doesn't drop down
What's going on? This kind of stuff happens on these java type features on a lot of sites.
The other problem is, if I click on something that will open a new window or tab, it won't show. I think the best example would be if I were trying to download something, I wouldn't get the pop-up and Popup blocker is off.
