    Re: New Post Search fails in IE9

    Vista was the worst-much worse than XP. I was sorry I upgraded. W7 works pretty damn good. I hated the new start menu for W7 too but got used to it pretty quick.
    Thanks,

    Are you sure?

    Do you really want to say that?

    Recently, one of the War and Peace monkeys made it as far as Book 12 Chapter 5 but typed: "Well then, remember, this is not a leifhsa7..."

    Not only will I say it, I was using a laptop with non-standard hardware - one with a full multi-touch screen. Never had any problems with it. I've since upgraded it to Windows 7.

    Cool, glad to know it worked for someone. I wasn't actually questioning your experience just making a play on the way Vista has an absolutely annoying (to many people) way of almost insisting at times that you really don't want it to do what you just told it to do. Much of that can be hacked out but you shouldn't have to do so.

    Re: New Post Search fails in IE9

    I want to add to this thread: I saw where turning off the checkmark "Enable Protected Mode" solves the problem. But I don't want my kids to get any more fake alerts, the kind that gets past the best virus scanning software.

    So I thought it through.

    What sites are the ones where my kids are getting hit by fake alerts - that's right - sites with so many ads that even a responsible organization would have trouble vetting them all.

    What does this website not have in common with those sites. Trick question. That's right - no ads.

    I added this website to my trusted sites list, and kept the protected mode enabled.

    So far seems to have solved the issue.

    Re: New Post Search fails in IE9

    Found out I have to delete temporary files to make this work.

    So I've found an Internet Options setting for IE9 that I think is promising.

    Browsing History, Settings
    Delete...
    Select checkmark in front of "Temporary Internet Files" and leave the others blank.
    Click "Delete" and allow to finish.

    Then select the checkmark under Browsing history:
    Delete browsing history on exit.

    I'll try that for a while and let you know, but I think that is the solution

    History works fine on vBulletin 3.8.5 with IE 9 (e.g. DVInfo.net), and this site appears to be running 3.6.4, so could be there is code (css, js, whatever) being used that IE 9 can't handle correctly.
