Ok, this problem is very agitating.
When i search a forum such as this one, i get my list of results just fine. If i click on a result to take me to a particular post i go to that post, but when i try to use the back button to go back to my list of results i get a "this page cannot be displayed" error.
It happens on virtually any forum i participate on, and i have never expeirienced this before.
This is a brand new machine and is completely free of spyware and viruses.

I am guessing it is a problem with IE not remembering the page before or not resubmitting the search info??

If anyone can help me solve this, i would be most grateful!

Would you consider using Firefox or Mozilla?

I used Firefox on my old computer, personally, i just thought it was ok. With all the anti spyware software that i run, and Microsofts new pop-up blocker i don't really have any problems with IE. However, with Firefox, certain websites wouldn't display, and it acted strangely when downloading videos and such. I kinda like the way IE behaves better.
Maybe i will switch over once again. SIGH.
