    That's how mine is behaving too, Win10/64, Microsoft Surface Book, IE11.
    Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
    "Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

    I can't get through more than a 1-2 line reply without it crashing IE. My suspicion is an ad-refresh script is getting higher priority than the user-input script.

    I'm not seeing that problem with Win10/64 IE 11. Nor do I see that problem with Win10/64 Firefox 53.0.2 (32-bit).

    We are seeing a few issues with the new version of VB4 that was just brought on line. Let us know if the problem persists.

    Same problem. Running Windows 10/64 and IE11. Causes Explorer shutdown.
    Rustic? Well, no. That was not my intention!

    We have no choice other then to wait for vBulletin to provide a patch to correct all of the problems from this software upgrade.

    Just the way my feeble mind works I suppose, but is it still an "upgrade" when it breaks stuff?

    OK I posted over in the Engravers Forum about slow Forum and now I am seeing its not just me!
    Same computer I have used for years, Windows 7 Pro IE and I am also using Norton's which I do know adds some slowness but it been on for nearly a year without the issues I am having now!

    So I did a tracert and its posted over on the Engraving Forum It shows a route that included 4.69.211.186 which leads to Level 3 Communications Inc in San Jose CA. Why would my ISP route clear out to Calif?

    FWIW, the symptoms seem to go away if you switch to the 'standard' editor (tip of the hat to John K. Jordan for pointing this out), so vBulletin may have changed the 'full' (WYSIWYG) editor. That may be a workaround until the forum up/down/sidegrades to a stable version.

    Happened again yesterday. Do you recommend that we change the editor settings as Lee wrote? Let me know if you need additional info.

    When others have had weird problems, clearing the cookies seems to help at least for a while. I've had no problems (where's a piece of wood to knock on) using Windows 10 and Firefox.
