Script running slowly? WTF?

dougle00 · 07-04-2006, 07:01 PM

Hi guys whilst accessing hotmail via wireless 400Mbs it keeps saying "A script on this page is causing internet explorer to run slowly". What does this mean guys as the comp keeps hanging for a while and how can I fix it?

Thanks

i dont know what that is, maybe a virus? have you ran virus scans?

Its a brand new laptop, just took it out of the box this morning and just got on 4 websites so don't think it'll be a virus. Any other suggestions?

Thanks

im really not familiar with this, can you surf on the web? or no?

I had this problem with that Yahoo email Yamaner virus. A virus scan is indeed in order, with updated virus definitions.

Not to worry mate!

The problem will be gone now...

Guys, it was a problem with IE and Hotmail. It worked perfectly in FF, but when I tried to access it in IE, it came up with the exact same error. It seems that they have removed that script now, and all is back to normal again.

Trust me, it's not a virus!

oo, alright.
