Severe browser problem

Hey, this question mayor may not already be asked on here, but I couldn't find anything when I searched. I recently upgraded from Vista to 7 Ultimate, and I am loving the experience so far. But, I have ran into one slight problem, and that deals with the browser. I usually use Safari 4, or Firefox, they are both excellent browsers. But, when I go to apple.com, and click on the mac tab, the black box will not scroll at all, the bar will move, but the items will not. I also go to a website where I can watch two and a half men, and you have to click on an arrow to drop down a menu, this also will not work. I also go to thecreativeone.tv | social blog, technology news, live broadcasts, advertising opportunities, and more! - Social Blog and when you hover over the menu items, a drop down menu appears, but now does not appear. All of this occurred after I installed Windows 7, so this has to be a problem from it. If anyone has a solution please let me know. Oh, this also happens when I use IE too.

Have you tried running either in safe mode?

I have tried running in safe mode, and the same thing happened. I am running firefox version 3.0.15. I've also noticed that when I am on youtube or another website that runs videos, it will have many errors on the page, and it never did that before. Also, I tried watching the latest episode of heroes using nbc's video player, and it didn't work at all, it just kep saying it was loading, and it did this for all 3 browsers I have. This is really starting to bug me, I can't do most of the stuff I usually do when I am browsing the internet, if you have any solutions please notify me.

Firefox has 3.6 version now.
Try downloading that along with adobe flash player( Adobe - Adobe Flash Player )/javascript (java.com: Java + You) and check that you have the latest direct x ,should be in your microsoft update centre

Yeah, I tried it with the newest firefox. All of my java and adobe flash are up to date. I have no clue what is wrong, I am thinking about doing a complete reinstallation of Windows 7, but I don't know if that would help the problem or not.

What about system restore?

Problem solved! It turns out, that my CA internet security program was screwing it up. Once I uninstalled it everything started to work again.

Thanks for helping me, Joe.

Glad you got sorted,what option was stopping it out of curiosity?

I really have no clue what was stopping it, it seemed like it slowed down my computer a lot too, cause now it is running fast again.
