IE popup delay

Expand Post »
Have you ever seen IE got locked up for as long as 20 seconds because the page has a popup window? If you do, have you solved the problem? Please tell me how.

I used to solve it by updating MS Virtual machine 3 months ago. But yesterday I installed every possible updates offered at Microsoft.com, it didn't work out--a waste of time and energy.

This problem is driving me nuts because I need it to test my webpage. I hope Micro$oft doesn't do this on purpose to discontinue support for java.

Re: IE popup delay

Hey testtechtalk, does this happen on all sites with popups? Are you using a popup blocker (including the one built-into the Google toolbar, Norton Internet Security, or a web browser like Safari with a built-in popup blocker?

Re: IE popup delay

Nope. My laptop is freshly reinstalled yesterday. In fact, I did what I used to do right after XP was up. That's why I suspected Microsoft.

Re: IE popup delay

I need to have a popup showed on my webpage. Disabling scripting is removing interactive capability from the page.

Re: IE popup delay

By the way, I agree that Mozilla does a better job than Netscape, especially when dealing with table cell's onMouseover.
