splat **Internet Explorer is "blotchy"**

Ok, I just reinstalled all my software and reformated my HD thanks to a few members on this board!

Now I seemed to have run into another problem:

Whenever I scroll w/ Internet Explorer the website becomse "blotchy". It doesn't scroll "smoothly" like it use to before I reinstalled all the software.

Anybody have any idea why? (Maybe there is some option that I need to turn on or off)

Thanks in advance,

That solved everything for me when I saw an instinctively laggy MSIE scrolling. Just follow the link, download, and it should take you to where you should need it. It should install automatically.
