Help with forms on new laptop please?

Lally

I have a new laptop and am having problems on any pages which have forms. Forums, car insurance quotes, that kind of thing.

The page doesn't seem to want to wait on me and it reloads it and I lose whatever I have done. So when I am typing on forums I have to type in an email and quickly paste it in. Forms are a no go area, unless I disconnect and type in the details and then connect again. No use though if there are drop down boxes.

Any idea what I can do? It happens in IE, Firefox, and a Google browser I tried (Can't think of the name)

Lally

It came with Windows Vista

Can anyone else help?

All sounds a bit strange. I'm not sure what to suggest to be honest. If it's happening in all three browsers I'm doubtful resetting one to its default settings would fix it.

All looks good there. Did you run CCleaner? Did you run SuperAntiSpyware?

While we ensuring your laptop is clean I'd suggest you download Avira AntiVir (asuming you don't already have any anti-virus software - if so you'd need to uninstall this first):

http://download.cnet.com/Avira-AntiVir-Personal-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10322935.html?part=dl-10322935&subj=dl&!!!!!button&cdlPid=11012914
Once installed update it
Perform a full scan
Quarantine everything found

Lally

will do the other 2 later on, cheers!

SuperAntiSpyware found 10 threats, I can't get a report to run on here. I'm doing them in order of your post. Thanks again!

Did you install Avira? If so uninstall Avast.

Fix the following:

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{F7A2B016-A2AA-4098-AE23-BBB982861980}: NameServer = 149.254.192.126 149.254.201.126

Uninstall the Yahoo toolbar too.

Everything else looks fine.
