About:blank driving me nuts!

dentheman · 11-24-2010, 02:20 PM

When going to my home page and many other sites I have to wait for about:blank to load several times for many seconds each time before getting the site. Then if I click on a link I have to go throught the same thing. I did search for removing it, but it seems to be difficult, beyond my level of computer knowledge. I have AVG (free) anti-virus that does an excellent job, but I guess about:blank isn't a virus, it acts more like a cookie.

I don't get an about:blank screen, but I see it trying to 'load' (or whatever) by watching the bar where I can watch the cookies. So, I don't know if it is being blocked, or what, but waiting for all of this causes some sites to take more than 30 seconds to load. It does not affect my use of GZ250bike.com.
