Hi all, first post here.
yesterday I had to brutally uninstall a driver of a digital camera and its
software because its uninstall programs hung in Vista.
Don't know wheter it's related or not to it but here's my problem: when
opening IE7 the homepage and the start-up tabs open regularly BUT, when I
try to open a page in a new tab with the right click , or do the same to
open page in new window, both the tab or the page hangs trying to connect
but it's clear that it won't open the page , it stays like hybernated ,
while I can close the tab/page with no problem.
Tried to follow the tips that some people suggested in previous posts
(disable dell/flash add-ons) ,

tried a reset too but no results...

That's about all the repair that's left to IE7 users in Vista.
By doing that presumably you effectively cleared all your userdata,
deleted all your add-ons, and re-registered all the IE related .dlls
(or so we were told when MS were asked about how IE7 replaced
the IE6sp2 /rereg facility.)


anybody here can explain what's going on from a day to another?
Did IE7 have a cold?


Do you have any other software installed which might be interfering
with those operations? E.g. another browser which might be partially
taking over then?

What I would do is Run... ProcMon to try to see what is happening
when you try to open those other tabs. That diagnostic would be most
useful when you had an otherwise identical trace from another system
which was working normally.

To get more help I think you should post in Vista specific newsgroups too.
Cross-posting for convenience.


Thanks for any help!

Good luck
