Computer is running fine except for one thing that I haven't been able to figure out. When on Ebay or any other page that is 1 on many pages, there are "Next" buttons and page numbers that you can go to. When I click on Next or any pabe number, the Next button will turn grey but nothing happens. Have rebooted computer and all the normal things that I can think of, but it is getting to be a problem as I use Ebay a lot and have no way to look at all the pages for an item

When you click next or page# instead of left clicking. Try right-clicking and open in new tab or window. Does this allow you browse pages.

Obviously you wouldn't want to do this for every page but this gives us an idea of where the issue may lie!

Let me know!

I got an email that ITstudent2006 is supposedly answered my question. I can't find that answer. Can you repost?

After I added my comment about not seeing IT's answer, when mine posted, all of a sudden IT's came up also. In regaards to your post. When I left click, nothing happens. When I right click and open in a new window, it works fine. I can adjust to that but am curious why the left click won't work. Seems to work on other things.

Thanks for the update. I am not implying that you get used to right-clicking and opening in a new tab/window because quite frankly this would get annoying over time.

Are you able to click on links and be redirected?
Have you tried another browser?

Have you tried clearing data cache and disabling all add-ons and re-enabling one by one, testing in between each one? If not, I would try this...

It works with the left mouse click on other programs or sites such as Google when you want to view the next group of listings. It only won't work on Ebay I am discovering. I have gone to Internet Explorer tools and deleted all history, cache etc. Doesn't make any difference. If this is just an Ebay problem, I don't mind opening in another window. But I am curious as to why. I have not gone tried clearing data cache and disabling and restarting one by one. Not sure I know how to do this.
I can click on a link and it will direct.

Maybe someone else would know the answer to this because I am out of suggestions. I don't think Ebay has a plug-in that's installed so it wouldn't be an issue there.

I will roam around Ebay and see if I can recreate this issue! I will keep you posted!

Does your eBay next page/previous page butttons look like this? (look below)

OK! I got it fixed. Went to Tools/Internet Options/Advanced and reset IE settings. That took care of a couple problems. Definitely speeded my internet quite a bit and also got my buttons repaired. Must have been something checked that didn't agree with my system. I had to reinstall a couple of tool bars etc. but that didn't take long. Thanks for helping.
