IE and computing.Net

Yesterday I started getting problems with IE and this web site only. What happens is it works fine for about 5 seconds then freezes up, if I refresh the screen goes blank.
I disabled zone alarm, Int. Security, deleated files/folders and cookies in the properties and still has little affect.
I haven't installed anything major lately. Is anyone else having these problems?

I thought it was the site screwy too but when I posted the same question...I was told it was advertisements loading..just have to wait until it finishes loading. Since we don't pay to visit the site I guess they have to pay for it somehow. Also have to wait until done loading before typing or you will get all kinds of garbled text in the message box and forces you to retype it all...lol. The underlined text in the posts are for 3rd party advertising. To make a long story short...nothing is wrong.

Thanks, Just wondering if it was a tech prob at coputing.Net's end. I've had no problems before with running Internet security and zone alarm, in fact it ran almost better because no adverts.

Hello,
Its not on Computing.Net's end. It is on one of Computing.Net's advertiser's end. Like I said, it should be fixed shortly. You can always disable javascript until that happens.

Summary: Hi Martin You are a Star what you said works!!! Fantastic.I love my opera and only used IE for computing.net. Now there is no need to use IE at all.Brilliant! Thanks again John PS I don't want to get...
Summary: Thanks Justin, but it didn't make any difference. Perhaps there is just something about MSN9 and Computing.net that drives my available computer resources down? I'm at a loss. I've taken screenshot...
Summary: Why mess with a good thing? I've been with Computing.Net since day one and the web site has not changed that much. This place is pure and simple. You come here for help and nothing more. This question...
