IE8 freezes all the time for a few seconds

You need to fix IE8 to have it work properly with GMail, by turning off Compatibility View. 1. In IE9, press the Alt key to toggle the main menu bar on first.
2. Then in IE8 or IE9 click Tools and choose Compatibility View Settings
3. Remove google.com from the big text box if it is there (in some versions it may not be.)
4. Uncheck the three checkboxes under the text box - this is very important, or Microsoft will just switch CV back on again next time you start IE.
5. Restart IE.
That should cure all your scrolling problems.
To deal with your sidebar you have three options:
1. Hover your mouse over the section you want to see to expand that part - i.e. mouse up to your labels to have them all drop down, or mouse down to the bottom to see your Chat contacts
2. Grab the bar which divides the two sections and drag it down till you can see all your labels
3. Collapse Chat till you need it by clicking the Chat bubble icon at the bottom of the side bar.

what OS are you using? try removing it again including all of your web browsing history including offline files and install a previous version of IE

IE8 should not be doing this. When you installed IE8 did you make sure to keep smart screen filter turned off from the beginning? Also, make sure you have the latest version of NIS 2009 (either 16.5.0.134 or 16.5.0.135) installed that support norton. If all else fails try and uninstall IE8 to revert to your previous IE version, fully update norton, and then install IE8 again and make sure when you set the preferences for the first time smart screen filter is turned off.

Hi,

This may be caused due to the fact that not all websites are "IE8-compatible" (they were designed for earlier versions of IE). So, to browse such websites you can turn on the compatibility feature in IE8 by clicking the Compatiblity View button next to the address bar in IE8.

There are many reasons for Windows to freeze on shutdown.

Try rolling back to the previous version of Media Player. Go to Control Panel, Add & Remove Programs. Click on Windows Media Player and select remove. It will give you the option to go back to the previous version.
