So, before I ditch Avant (after a long and happy relationship) and try IE (groan) does anyone have any suggestions?
Windows xp & latest version of Avant.

Avant browser crashing |

A recent problem: from time to time Avant seizes up and cannot even be closed, not even via Task manager - the only way forward is to restart the computer.
It's already done it two or three times today, and it's very irritating. Can't see any pattern to it.

Oh dear, Pauline - it's been behaving itself for me on Vista. I think I woulld go to Firefox before IE7 if it did get unreliable.

No problems here on Vista either.
Think the new IE8, due sometime soon, is suppossed to be really good. |

Hi Pauline. Did you get Avant sorted?
There's a new version available now, and here's what's new. Hope you get sorted, as I know, like me, you have got attached to Avant. |

Thanks, H². I installed the new version on the 17th - I have Avant set to tell me when there is one - and I thought it had solved the problem until it crashed
again last night. But hey, once every couple of days I can live with!

Come to think of it, I was having probs on my old XP machine, which is a pretty good setup. Everything froze, but did eventually take off again. Couldn't
even open 'My Computer' or anything like that. Would do that every so often, but I was, and still do, blame PC, as it needs a good dunging out. No
probs at all on new Vista64 setup, and it's running fine here in the internet cafe.
One of the greatest things is the online storage. I can access all my stored favs from here. |
