Something bad in WinRAR vs WinZip thread ??

Matth · Dec 12, 2002, 11:57 AM

On page 4, my mouse goes stop/start - doesn't happen on any other pages here - has somebody got a high-CPU script in there?

Or perhaps a corrupted animated avatar?

Anyone else seeing this?

Hmm, if you are running a cordless mouse change the batteries. Mine does that A LOT. Just acts up at certain times.

No, corded fully optical, on a surface it's ok with - I also found IE (5.5sp2 on Win98SE) bombed out on me after vistiting that thread - going there next, wish me luck!

Got jumpy on me again - but cleared when I hit STOP to halt the animations - I shouldn't be running out of CPU power - its an Athlon 1200 - not that hot these days, but ought to be plenty!

I checked all the pages and I can confirm im not getting the issue and all the code appears ok. I suggest you clear your cache and if the problem persists to try another browser just to check.

sorry I cant be of more help matth but I really cant see any problems anywhere

Oh well, this may be what I was saving IE6 for - I always said that if 5.5 runs well, don't upgrade - so then you can throw 6.0 at it when you need to!
