Computer Website Question

[zaggahamma]

So I've got several programs running...

Email, Facebook, and Our wonderful Steroid site.....

...ok..and maybe youtube...

I have an open chat going on facebook and am typing a post here on this site and a new chat pops up on facebook....why would that create a pause in what I'm typing on this site and possible make me refresh the page to retype what i was typing ...

or...the music on youtube seems to get distorted by the chats on facebook...

anyone else experience this and/or anyone know if it can be fixed

Make sure your browsers are up to date. Facebook relies heavily on AJAX and it's a memory hog. If you're using firefox, it's even worst. But I've experienced that problem often with facebook and other apps.

wuts AJAX?

maybe i'll just start using internet explorer...no frills...but this shiat is a pain...

If you have multi windows/apps running and opening or playing something else interrupts your current process , it sounds like your computer might be running out of resources. Whats your system specs ?

A little "blip" in tying shouldn't be a real issue but if you have to refresh the entire page that could show a resource problem.

I experience this to jpk mate, its definately a bug that facebook has to address.

I do use firefox also, so it could be firefox, or my comp is just retarted.

Well you can easily find out of its FF, just downloaded another browser. Try chrome, or IE. Virus ? doubtful.

Me personally i don't use IE. I like chrome which is made by google (http://www.google.com/chrome). Its super fast and has awesome features.

Doesn't matter what you download it on.
