Microsoft’s new update causes problem to users

Recently noticed your internet explorer running painfully slow? Its probably the “consecutive modal dialog boxes” glitch. Its a result of downloading the new Micrsoft update. Essentially, what it does is; cause your system to slow down, become unresponsive and in some cases this gets so serious that the user has to reboot the system. Its not like Microsoft isn’t aware of the problem affecting Internet Explorer 7 to 11 users.

The affected browsers downloaded either “MS14-051 or MS14-037”and when web applications use several modal boxes, it causes the program to slow down and eventually become unresponsive. Users whose computers are set to automatically download updates are particularly vulnerable to this. The company has released a hotfix to repair the mistake, and are advising users to download the program to not face the problem. The fix is specific to each version.

Deborah Campbell

Deborah Campbell grew up on a steady diet of fantasy stories, 19th century poetry and Greek mythology. It’s no wonder she turned into such a hopeless romantic. She has always had a knack for writing, but she has yet to publish any best-seller yet. At the beginning of 2013 she decided to try something a little different: she started working for a web design firm, as a creative artist. That’s where she discovered her second calling. Although seemingly opposite, fantasy and technology are Deborah’s two main passions. She is now part of the argyllfreepress.com team, for which she creates detailed tutorials & reviews for some of the world’s most exciting gadgets. She also tries to squeeze a verse or two in her reviews from time to time.
