Windows 7: Explorer Tabs Refreshes

Hey guys plz help
My internet explorer tabs keep on refreshing...I use IE that came with Windows 7, so I installed firefox....funny enough a few days later the same happend to firefox...What the hell......really not cool...
Appreciate any help related to this problem...tnx a mil

is your keyboard damaged, particularly the "F5" key try a different keyboard if possible.

Know Its not that...Two days after my IE started doing it I bought a new mouse and keyboard...a few days later firefox started doing it....
have now idea whats going on.....

Hi stomper! Welcome to SevenForums

I can't help you with IE, but to stop Firefox reloading/refreshing pages automatically, do the following:

1. Open Firefox browser
2. Head to Tools >> Options >> Advanced >> General >> Accessibility
3. Tick the option next to Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page

Save your changes.

Checking the above option means you have manually selected not to allow Firefox to automatically reload web pages by adding accessibility.blockautorefresh code to the about:config parameters. Now all your auto page refresh or auto page reload requests by web sites will be ignored by Firefox and you will enjoy an uninterrupted browsing.

Hope this helps.

hey tnx man.....
THIS ACTUALLY WORKS....so what if my IE doesn't work....
Tnx a mil.... =)

Hi Stomper,

To do the same for Internet Explorer, do the following :

Step 1: In Internet Explorer go to Tools –> Internet Options and click on the security tab.


Step 2: In the security tab click on the Custom level button towards the bottom.



Step 3: In the security settings window, scroll down till you come across the Miscellaneous group and select disable in Allow META REFRESH option and click on Ok.




That’s it the auto-refreshing of the page won’t happen once you make this change.

Sorry for the delay in posting this.

Hope this helps.
