Best Answer

It may be a problem with one of the addons you installed or happened to be installed on your browers.

For IE try Clicking the Start button , click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools, and then click internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

As for Firefox go to your tools check the add-ons and disable them all.

Should these methods work, you'll at least know it was an add-on messing things up. Figuring out exactly which one may take a bit of time however.

What are the differences between internet explorer and Firefox?

Firefox is much safer in my opinion than internet Explorer. I have had no virus or spyware problems since switching over to Firefox. There is a higher rate of contacting a glitch using IE. I think Firefox is much quicker than IE. I switched becaues it seemed faster and I loved their tab feature. Although IE has this feature now I still find it easier, faster and safer when using Firefox over IE. I see it as Internet Explorer is on their 8th version and they are already playing catc up to Firefox's 3rd version. Firefox is a much younger but I feel like I am getting much more from it.
