What version of vista (home basic, premium, etc)?

You also say a new laptop, have you tried to update vista to make sure you
have the latest and greatest.

I assume you're using Internet Explorer for your web browser. Use Google Chrome. Problems solved. If you don't like the Chrome setup, use Mozilla Firefox. They beat the pants off of IE.

Running Vista Ultimate and its fine here.

Try resetting your web browser (Internet Explorer 7)

Control Panel > Internet Options or Network & Internet then Internet Options > Advanced Tab then select "Reset"

You might have a security setting too high.

I have to say I acually had issues with my Vista on my laptop. DESKTOP a whole nother story.

BUT with the smileys .. you just gotta know what your typing. It may also be a "eff"/screw up with the computer. MY LAPTOP had bad ram, crashed after buying it brand new, three weeks in. NOW being fixed for problems. IF ONLY WWINDOWS COULD GO BACK TO VISTA!
