Seems you knew about it before anyone else did.

As I said, I am an almost 20 year user, and in that time I have learned many lessons when dealing with pc troubles.

The biggest problems I always face, come from compatibility with programs I have installed. So I try to install programs slowly to see if there is a compatibility problem. I never take a chance.

Mainly, because I hate pc troubles, so much so I am considering going to Mac next time I get a new computer.

Anyway, I give it a while before adding new programs so I can see if things are doing good. If I have trouble, I start with removing the last software I installed then go from there. If it fixes the trouble, and 95% of the time it does, I consider it a buyer beware problem.

If it does not fix the problem, then I consider it must be my pc that is the problem. Many friends and relatives have had problems with identical software and OS that I never had, and vise verse. It all boils down to programming, manufacturing, electricity, and user usage.

As a rule I do not get discombobulated over things so much so that I end up calling tech support, unless the machine is brand new. Usually if it is new, I demand a replacement, because I will not work with anything that has problems fresh out of the pack. That is just asking for continued trouble.

So if the problem seems to be a software problem, especially if that software is free like browsers are, then no one usually knows but me until I read an article like this.
