    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    Can any Firefox users explain the deal regarding these super annoying "Critical Update" messages that I seem to be getting with annoyingly high frequency?: Below is the prompt I got upon trying to reenter my sign in email address: From what I've read online, this could be malware, but if...

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    The last time I tried IE a few days ago, it immediately went into webpage recovery mode, which for me is worse than Edge's performance, these days. :rolleyes: CHEERS! :)

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    Both of our PCs have 6GB of RAM with a limit of 8GB. Using ReadyBoost with USB memory sticks is our only other viable option, unfortunately. We currently use one 16GB stick each. CHEERS! :)

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    The thing is, those are the games she likes to play. :rolleyes: Unfortunately, when it comes to even most of the PC basics the wife admittedly knows next to nothing, including Task Manager, and I'll swear up and down that I have told her about Task Manager and other PC applications, REPEATEDLY...

    So, what you're saying Chris, is that the Facebook games ARE what's causing the browser crashes?:unsure:

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    It turns out that the wife's issues might have more to do with her existing Facebook account than any specific browser, as the crashes only occur when she uses FB or when playing FB games. She's thinking that her FB account could be corrupted. I suggested that she open another FB account, and...

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    Thanks Howie, but I've been down that route before, in which I've completely wiped everything off of the "old" Google Chrome. In my experience, all that seems to accomplish is a few weeks more without Google Chrome crashing, which is why I personally got rid of it on my Laptop a little over a...

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    The wife's Google Chrome is pretty much bare bones regarding any extensions. In fact, she visits very few sites other than her Facebook, and the 1 or 2 games that she plays from within that site, and yet she's experiencing these silly problems with her Browser randomly and repeatedly crashing...

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    After repeated crashes with Google Chrome on the Mrs PC Laptop, I've installed Opera on her system. While Opera is running pretty well for her so far, I've run into a possibly unresolvable issue. I've tried changing the settings so that she can play Facebook games. Below are the options that...

    Internet Browsers: What are YOU using? (And why?)

    Since updating Adobe Flash Player, my Firefox Browser seems to be running somewhat better, except when its CPU usage bottoms out (Which causes my FF web page loads to hang without completing!) for some unknown reason, which seems to be a "My own PC" issue. I suspect it may have been something...
