Hello!
Please help me... my computer’s operating system is Windows 7 and I am using Internet Explorer 9.
I just have a problem in viewing the pages. It seems to work just fine but when I try going to the website www.npr.org.
I keep on getting an error message saying “npr.org is not responding due to a long running script”.
The only option I have is to click the icon that would stop the script and doing it every single time has been pretty annoying.
Is there any way for me to fix this? I
hope you can help me.
Thank you.

Hi there
This looks like a compatibility issue. Websites are lagging behind in making them work with latest version of browsers. It's wise to update to a new version after it has been there for some time.
Just click on the Compatibility View button next to the address bar when you get to this site. You have to press it only once. The site will open in Compatibility view hereafter.
That doesn't work? Try opening the site without any Add-ons. Go to Start> All programs>Accessories>System Tools >Internet Explorer(no Add-ons). This opens Internet Explorer 9 with no add-ons. If this proves fertile then consider getting Mozilla Firefox.
