I know firefox is probably a better browser, but I am still so used to internet explorer I cant change. Anyways, when Im browsing and I want to go back, I have to click the "back" button like 3 times before it actually goes back. Does anybody have any idea what is going on, and how to fix it? Thanks.

Does this happen on all sites, or just some?

Some sites are designed in such a way that when you hit the "Back" button, you just get redirected to the same page that you're trying to leave (regardless of what browser you're using). I'm not a web programmer, so I don't know the mechanics of it, but I do find it pretty irritating myself.

I think this thread belongs to the web browsers forum ???

It is hit and miss, some sites it will not go back and then some it will. even here at Daniweb I have to hit back 3 times. But mostly all of the sites are this way.

Does it go back by one page or three pages ??

It only goes back one page after I click it three or four times.
