Irregular typing

I've had this issue that while responding to a thread the keyboard skips or ignores when I press any key. For instance, while typing the word itself will be underlined while entering it and it will kip some of the letters I enter ad I constantly have to go back and fix them. Yep it's happening while I'm writing this thread . Anyone else
have this issue? Oh and it doesn't matter If I'm using my desktop or laptop. So I'm assuming it's this site.

Nope, it is not this site :)

I'm going to take a wild guess and say you are using IE 11 ?

I just upgraded from 9 to 11 and am having the same issue.

Turning off auto spell correct in the add on's has almost eliminated this annoyance.

Cheers, Don

I am having this issue, and I'm also a recent convert to IE 11. (Not by choice, but by one of the users in my family not paying attention and just left-clicking any button on the screen without actually reading it.)

Now that my wife has finally used the iMac, I can't get her off of it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ay IE 11 issues. Maybe she'll get her own iMac for her birthday.

I switched to chrome. The other problem IE11 has is you lose the cut and paste buffer.

Remember, it is pronounced "AAAYYYEEEEE".

You may call it "AAYYYEEEEE", but I call it something else entirely different that I won't bother spelling out here.. (#$$&^%$@%$#&$!!!)

If I first click the [a/A] icon in the upper left near the text, I rarely have the problem FastGlass. I know the problem well and it is IRRITATING. I continue to use IE11 only because I'm not motivated enough to uninstall it. In fact, this is the only forum that I use that seems to stumble with it.

I agree with Don. I went to Chrome about a year ago. I had been using Firefox but was having issues with some work sites. Now mind you I also have Android devices and it syncs across all those so my bookmarks etc are all on any device I use, phone, tablet, laptop at work etc.

UPDATE >

It appears this is a vBulletin issue with IE 11.

Just now I've posted on two other none vbulletin sites with no issues including highlight/cut/paste.

BTW, I'm on Windows 7

Are you sure your primary can is a Nikon? These forums are brand sensitive you know. Lol I never use IE, it's agonizingly slow.

You know I switched to Google Chrome and all is good. I hate to switch things because you need to relearn the basics. Switching to Google was actually pretty easy though.
Thanks for the reply everprentice.
