well I've tried disabling all the unneccessary Browser Helper Objects, but at times I still seem to get slowness or timeouts from multiple tabs of IE, and often it dosen't feel like a 1.5 connection, more like a 256k one! It's strange though because downloads and games are top notch, its just IE / Firefox! has anyone encountered a similar problem?

640mb - with IE and 6 tabs? Jesus... what sites are you looking at?

That is HEAPS, wouldnt surprise me if you are running low on RAM by the sound of it.

Use google chrome or firefox - i rarely see mine go above 200mb with heaps of tabs

ie, ff, and chrome stack per tab/window, chrome being the worst. if you are running vista this will be because of dwm.exe. the way dwm is utilised with windows 7 is far more improved and should abolish the issue you are having. just for shits and giggles (if you have vista ofc), open task manager (start -> "taskmgr.exe", or ctrl+shift+esc), and see the utilisation of dwm.exe. then, open up tabs or windows and check that usage again :D i use ie8 and it does the job nicely. the only reason you should have gone to firefox or opera was because of the unfortunate variations of css before rfc implimentation. css3.0 is being worked on atm and all browsers are to be designed to view the page in the exact same way (thank goodness for making 2/3 versions of sites with js to direct them to the appropriate one! :D )

ps: remove aero theme and see if that fixes your issue :)

+1 for Chrome.

I have up to 13 tabs open at any one time on a 2GHz Pentium with 1GB or ram... with Outlook open all day.

No real issues. Much faster and more stable than IE7 or 8. No probs with website display like I do with Firefox and Opera.

The only problem I have encountered is if I try to upload images to Photobucket. It states 100% complete, but just won't finish for Chrome.

IE, no problem with Photobucket.

I believe it is an issue Chrome has with Java.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Do the following first and get back to us. - Clean and verify your IACV - Verify for vacuum leaks/post MAF leaks. (Pressure test is the best and cheapest way) - Do you have a BOV with stock ecu/MAF? If so, remove it.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      Hey all, The skyline I have is stalling when the engine is at normal operating temp.  When starting it while it is cold, it'll run just fine.  I have replaced the battery (bad cell), I have replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and clean the MAF sensor.  Any other suggestions?

      Thanks for all the information on this.  I tried ordering the parts from Amayama website and all 3 Solenoids are discontinued and not available.  Does anyone have any other websites to suggest that I could find the parts?   Separate issue-- I will start a new thread, but basically the vehicle is stalling when warmed up.

      It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including.
