what is the problem?

any recommendation of which browser i should use? IE is very buggy still on Vista, I'm having random freezes and some functions don't work including but not limited to, the refresh, right click, and others.

Then Opera... well Opera was just a pain in my rear. I was using it for a while and found out that it keeps messing up a lot of pages with security encryption.

thanks a lot.
 
The only thing found "buggy" with IE 7 in Vista here was the greyed out option to send pages or links using Windows Mail formerly Outlook Express in XP. Occasionally IE 7 will start boiuncing while the problem isn't with the browser but the video drivers! This is what controls the vertical and horizontal elements for the display as well as the Catalyst. This would be the chief suspect since there are only three versions out at this time. 7.1, 7.2, 7.3

I would accept that possibility, but why does this occur only with Firefox and not opera or IE explorer?

it's on my dell xps m1210 laptop.
 
even as of right now, I'm on IE and I can't right click on the screen to hit refresh. I also can't even click on links. yay...
 
Is that a programmable model or simply a basic standard nouse? When you can't right click with a mouse with it's own software you may have reinstall that if any drivers got lost somewhere. The F5 key is assigned for refresh in IE 7. That's an alternative for the mouse there. But either drivers for the mouse are not Vista compatible or there's a problem being seen with Windows or even the video drivers. Those don't distinguish between browsers.
 
I never ran that here on either XP or Vista. I am under the impression that this effecting more then one browser perhaps due to the new designs geared into the protected mode feature now added into IE 7. On XP with IE 7 and Firefox 2.0 alike none of this has ever come up. For you removing the addon helped there but probably would have reappeared if you hadn't gone back to XP. That's one thought besides the new video drivers out for Vista as well.

It changes the looks and theme of your windows XP. If you applied any theme just go back to default XP theme.
And I guess this should solve the problem.

The problem is, he's not using XP. That's Vista. You'll see in the video and the first post he made.

You can also use Window Blinds with Vista, as they have made a version for it, but he obviously doesn't have it since he doesn't know what it is.

Have you tried reinstalling Firefox? You didn't mention that you did, so I figured it's worth a shot. If That doesn't work, it's most likely a Video Driver problem or something like that. Maybe even a monitor problem? Does it do the same thing on the Laptop screen?
 
Reinstalling Firefox won't make any difference since this seems to be more of a Vista problem. With a web page open with different active x content or Java's runtime. This isn't limited to one browser having seen and heard others seeing this in IE 7 as well. Being that Vista is the new MS item out it's probably still seeing s few bugs with drivers of one type or another.
