IE 8 Issue
« on: August 25, 2010, 10:50:28 AM »
I'm running IE 8 on Windows 7 on my computer. I noticed yesterday the webpage symbols on my tabs weren't right, like this




It has WoT for Yahoo, MSN for the AH home page, and Yahoo for AH BBS

Anyone know how to fix this or what may be causing it?

Did the problem start after you installed the new virus program? if so that could be the cause of your problem, it you purchased a physical copy of it i would roll it back a day or two and reinstall the virus program, you might have had something else open (browser, Napster, limewire) running or bad transfer , just make sure nothing is open or running when you reinstall, if it was a digital download you should still have access to the download and reinstall it from where it's stored, and remember to have nothing else open, hope that helps

Looks like you installed something, and they included a toolbar perhaps.

Indeed it did start after that download. It was one i bought but they send it in an email and you download it from the email. I was editing some pictures i took the other day while it was downloading so i'll try reinstalling it.
