On some pages that contain JavaScript or Flash, when my mouse rolls over the JavaScript/Flash areas, or sometimes even over the entire page, the mouse is REALLY choppy. I know it isn't my computer itself, because it's 1.33 GHz 512 mb RAM, and this kind of thing happens just in IE. I had upgraded to IE 6, I'm thinking it has something to do with that.

Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this weird issue?

Are you using Microsoft's Java, or Sun's? You'd be able to find out under Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab. If it's Microsoft, it'll be under Microsoft VM, Sun's would be listed as "Java (Sun)". If using MS, you may try Sun's version. Also you may try updating Flash.

Sun's Java (http://java.sun.com/getjava/)

JavaScript != Java.

Often it's a case of badly written code - a while ago there was a particular ad here at VirtualDr which caused major problems for a number of users. Can you post a link to one or two of the problem pages, see if anyone else notices the same?

Should I uncheck the VM as seen in this attachment?

Leave as is, that's the way mine shows to be and I don't have any problems. As long as the first one under Microsoft isn't checked. Just leave as is...

Did this resolve your problems you had before?
