Possible bug in IE 7.0

[rhett7660]

Hello..

Yes, I know, but this is the only browser I can use at work so I am stuck with it. But here is the bug.

When I click on one of the arrows to rate the thread comment, it kicks me out of the thread and sends me back to the forum's main page.

Wondering if anybody else has seen this.

Win XP SP 3
IE 7.0.5730.13

An update.. this seems to be happening as I have seen a thread or two in the main thread on this. I don't know if you want to keep this thread open or combine them.

Why are you still using IE7 and not IE8?

Why are you still using IE7 and not IE8?

I am not, the business I work with is and this is what I have access to on a day to day basis lol. They are realllllly slow on deploying new items on the network.

I am out in the field so I am not an administrator on this computer so I can't install another browser.

Heck we are just starting to see 2010 office (skipped 2007 all together.).

Thanks for the heads-up. As it happens the IE bugs have already reported in the thread about the new voting feature.

IE8 (if you ever get there) won't cure the problems. See this post.

MacRumors will have to fix it instead!

I think we fixed this. Can someone confirm/deny?

Arn..

I just tested in on the same machine I was using yesterday and it does indeed work correctly now. At least on this machine. The fix seems to have worked.

Looks like its solid now on IE9.
Before the redesign of the site it would stop working and kick me back to the main forum index and other times it would work.
Was very random and without me having to do anything but now it seems like its on point.
