Is it IE 11? Is it Windows 8.1?
Is it just me?

Hey computer users. I have a problem, was wondering if anyone else is seeing it, or has any suggestions? Only happens at WC, btw.
When on WinCustomize forums, you can mouse over a topic and get a small preview of that topic, well, mine aren't going away.
I have to close IE 11 and reopen it to get rid of it. Windows 8.1 MCE 64 bit.

RND - just use Chrome or Firefox. Problem solved.
Problem is only solved when the browser I prefer, is fixed. Since the problem is almost 100% confined to WinCustomize, I am using Chrome for WC. I assume eventually, IE 11, or WC, will change, and this will go away.
You don't get a new dog because yours is sick, you take it to the vet.

Yes, no joy there either.
Press F12 while in IE 11...on the far left side, scroll down and click on the emulation icon (it won't say emulation unless you hover over it)...you can change the "User agent string" to a variety of internet browsers....may or may not solve your problems...
Well, did that, didn't work. Thanks tho.

I may have stumbled upon a solution.
Seems there's the desktop IE11 and then there's the metro version of IE11.
Seems it doesn't happen when using the metro IE11. Problem solved!

I agree, every dog should have a cat to chew on.
