    I just installed IE7 on a Toshiba Tecra laptop running XP Pro because of a minor irritation with IE6. I assumed that IE7 would remove the problem - it didn't but now my laptop won't shutdown! I can hibernate it using the power button only, also when typing text into a text box it doesn't always accept the text 1st time like it doesn't receive the focus always. Are these common problems with IE7? Are they related to IE7 at all? Anyone seen anything like this? Do I have to go back to IE6? Thanks:)

      When you updated to IE7 did you do it via windows/microsoft update? If so did any other patches/drivers get installed?

        I installed it directly from the Microsoft download page. On further investigation the power off problem has 'gone away' by starting up without the port replicator fitted and then shutting down without it fitted. Now I can shut down normally even when its fitted - some sort of installation issue with the port replicator perhaps? Maybe someone can help with the original problem - occasionally I get corruption of some sort when a web page is displayed, the top of the page will be displayed normally then there will be a half displayed HTML tag such as

          sounds like your http connection is breaking in mid transfer. Most likely its either a problem on the server or a network issue between your PC and the webserver. Unless it's part of your internal network there's probably not anything you can do about it.

          -- You have to explain to them [VB coders] what you mean by "typed". their first response is likely to be something like, "Of course my code is typed. Do you think i magically project it onto the screen with the power of my mind?" --- John Simmons / outlaw programmer
