No there are no magic settings you can change, unless you dance the funky chicken naked on your keyboard while hitting the F the U and the K key with your big toes. OR you can download Opera <www.opera.com> and be able to manage the files you download, be able to download more than 2 files, and be able to resume broken downloads.

Use Opera, it's cheap ($20), you don't have to worry up about the millions of security holes that plague IE, fast and can block annoying popups, and best of all...MOUSE GESTURES!!! :)

"I think I smell sarcasm."

I didn't think it was so obvious. I was waiting for hoards of AMD users to jump in and say, "I use IE without a single problem, WTF?"

Guess I'll have to say it myself. If 70% or more users of IE have no problem at all, where do you think the problem lies? With the software or your configuration? If you cough up money for Opera... ?

This isnt against you MisterNi, i just realized it, though.

I find it funny that people say to use linux instead of windows because its free, and then suggest a browser which costs money as a replacement for a free one.

Look at the topic title. Ya think this whiny bitch deserved a decent reply? And true to form, when he does get help, no thanks or acknowledgment at all. Getting to be the norm lately...
