Installed all Windows updates for Vista? Including their reliability updates?
Tried using a different browser like Firefox? (It would be worth your while.)

I am running vista. ie explorer wont sometimes will not submit in formation correctly. for instance when I tried to submit my email and other information to create an account for the forum here it would not work, it just remained there as if I had not even clicked the submit button. also it will not supply information in the help menu< about, such as Product ID, Version, and Cypher Strength. Thanks everyone.
