I'm just wondering if it's something with Windows 7 are if it's just the archive. Love Is the One Thing That Never Ends.

I've tried three to four different sites one was fanfix.com a old star wars fanfic site and the others where old Roswell Fanfiction sites. Love Is the One Thing That Never Ends.

It could be only your computer, but it sounds strange: the search is on their end, and showing the search results shouldn't slow down because of a certain system. I wonder if it has something to do with JavaScript. Have you tried going to YouTube? Do you have a problem there? malu

I play yoville on my laptop and I've listened to music on here from my space. It's the only site I've found I'm having trouble with. Love Is the One Thing That Never Ends.

I know that YouTube uses JavaScript, and so if you tried to play a video there and it didn't work, it would probably be a JavaScript problem (that exists in Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7). Have you encountered any other website that complains about JavaScript not being enabled (or something like that)? malu
