resopalrabotnick Posted September 6, 2005 CID Share Posted September 6, 2005 this looks fishy to the extreme. edit hm, looks harmless after all, but also pointles the link given is to install the update for IE 4.0, which is not supported by MS no more. https://www.verisign.com/support/advisories/page_029264.html specifically: Who is affected by this change?

Guest helloimtim Posted September 6, 2005 CID Share Posted September 6, 2005 I would hope everyone that has seen me post in the past would know. I will NEVER give out a link to something I have never tried myself and used. In fact this little fix from the above link I have been useing for about 7 or 8 months. Im a Freak when it comes to spyware scans and virus scans. Even do it in safe mode. I just can not stress this enough. I have No clue why it installing this on xp with sp2 and windows 2000 pro not only made my right click faster but kinda made programs open faster to. As well I am a Freak when it comes to keeping garbage off my desktop and Keeping my disk defraged . Guess when it comes to my computer Im a neat freak. I just installed this. Closed my browser and tried my right click again. Thats when I noticed the diffrence. So While It never messed up my computer. In fact it helped. I make no promisses to what it may do to yours.

resopalrabotnick Posted September 6, 2005 CID Share Posted September 6, 2005 the only weird thing is that according to the documentation provided it does /nothing/ for you unless you're running ie 4. and since you say you're running 2k and xp, i kind of doubt that.

raptors892004 Posted September 6, 2005 CID Share Posted September 6, 2005 My right click is already fast enough.. If its not fast enough for you, just think what it must have taken for the PI and PIIs to load the right click menu on Windows 95 'n 98 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
