Discussion: Internet Explorer not showing things correctly for some reason

Has anyone else had a problem with internet Explorer? Basically it shows the wrong shelves for me and other people. When I'm in dashboard mode it shows my real shelf but if I just go to my blog by clicking on my portrait then it shows a shelf with books I've never read. I've also noticed the same thing on other people's blogs. For a long time I just thought dozens of people were reading the exact same books or belonged to a reading group or something but then I realized it was just IE showing things incorrectly.

For instance, I'll visit someone's blog and look at their shelf then go to another blog and it has the exact same shelf. Sometimes it does that dozens of times in a row then a random blog will have a different shelf. I know it's not the right shelf because their blog shows books and reviews for completely different kinds of books. Plus I've asked a few people back when it was confusing me so much. Just another reason I really need to make the switch to Chrome. Not to mention I can't view any videos here in IE for some reason.

I've just got IE set up exactly how I like it and Chrome's bookmarks drive me nuts. I know they're better but when you've been using the same setup for years it can be frustrating. Just wondering if anyone else noticed this or if there's a setting I might could change to fix this? Or maybe it's just that IE sucks and I need to change lol.

Just did some stuff on Chrome, Imported all my favorites from IE, now I just have to organize them. I think I'm going to jump ship. Plus Chrome also supports Nortin Internet Securities which is nice although it seems like I have to first log in on IE to make it pop up on Chrome. I'm going to look into that more though.

Hi.
Do you still encounter problems on IE? You can also mail us with details of your browser's version: contact@booklikes.com
Yes, I've completely switched to Chrome. I was using Internet Explorer 11 and no videos would ever even show up on it here at booklikes but not only that it kept showing the same bookshelves. For a while there I thought everybody belonged to a reviewing circle or something. I would visit 4 or 5 people's blogs and it would just show the same shelf over and over but to be fair I started having a lot of problems on other sites too including my own website. Things just weren't showing up and I couldn't even upload a picture to my wordpress site using IE so I've moved to Chrome and I'm much happier now.

Will send an email in just a little bit but I'd talked to a lot of people and they all said IE was just horrible for pretty much everything and I tend to agree.
