Not sure if anyone here uses myspace, but if any of you do, could you tell me if you are having this same problem and myself and a few friends? We log in to our accounts and when we go to access our inbox/outbox/friend requests, our browsers just lock up. We can compose mail, check comments, birthdays, etc, but those features have basically become totally unavailable to us. It started right after MySpace did their "upgrade". We all wrote their tech support a few days after we notcied the problem but all we got in response was "the issue is being addressed", so that was no help. Its been roughly 2 weeks since this crap started. Anyone else having the same problem? Any one have any kind of idea as to what the problem could maybe be? My initial thought was internet connection, but we're all on different broadband services, so that idea went out the window real fast.

I don't use that site myself. Although the first thing that comes to mind is perhaps a broken script. You can try to turn off scripting, i.e.; JavaScript in your browser to see if that works to prevent the lockup however if the page requires it you won't get very far.
It doesn't. I have been using Myspace for 3 years and I've been using Adblock Plus for a while, and I've never had any trouble with my inbox. Although I do occasionally have problems loading profiles because of all the JavaScript applets people crap up their pages with.
I don't hardly ever go on MySpace these days, but to find out if the problem was affecting me I just signed in.
Sorry to say it all worked fine, probably quicker than normal actually.
Hey thanks for the replies guys. I heard back from their tech support again this morning and the person was just like "it's an IE conflict and we're working on it. we're sorry for the inconvenience". But last night I got so pissed off that I downloaded Opera since it can highly recommended from a friend. And MySpace works now. Go figure. lol
i have a Myspace and i'm a member of the Tech Forums. i hate when people ***** about their problems with Myspace. it's either about them not logging in, not being able to access mail, or there friends being removed, or # of friends decreasing. people should think before ever posting. Myspace is FREE and so that being said they only have a few people fixing the issues. also, i really hate it when people ***** about their layouts. i make my own so i tell them to go to a trusted site. all-in-all Myspace was poorly designed but the new NAV bar and all looks ok at least.

I only venture there to look at a musical bands page, and more than often the page takes forever to load with all the stuff they have like umpteen video links from Timbuktu, etc.

Agreed.
Facebook is better and more fun.
