Hi: I found 2 settings so far that impact lockups and, or, crashes. The software rendering setting I described earlier and now I can further reduce long pauses and lockups by checking or unchecking the block activeX setting under the Tools Menu in Internet Explorer. Crashes are caused when something that IE is trying to load or run crashes or has delays. Some of these are activeX controls. On pages that use these for things like audio / video or advertising blocking the activeX execution will make things run smother and cleaner. On some pages blocking activeX might cause a video not to play, others the videos will still play normally. I am now checking block activeX on sites I want to read or use in any way but if I get a problem with something not playing like a video I Uncheck this setting. There is a tracking setting I have not played with but, from what I have read, is akin to the adBlock software with lists and all that jazz and I may try that out sooner or later unless we get Edge pretty soon. But then there is getting to be allot of settings to try and coordinate whenever you want something on a page to just render properly without any lengthly pauses or crashes me thinks. I can remember to turn on or off activeX for various sites and even cpu versus software rendering I use but adding another setting into the mix is going to get pretty confusing to fix quickly if something doesn't work as advertised on some site.
