Computer help needed

[Uwinsc]

I'm hoping someone might be able to help with a problem that has been going on for a while.
My sister and I have seperate log ins on our computer, on her's everything works fine but for the last few months mine has trouble loading pages properly. For instance when I am looking at the start new thread page all the options immediatly above this box don't come out- I just have a box with a red dot/cross in it, sometimes I don't even get that so I can't navigate websites properly as half the options on the menu may be missing. Some sites don't seem to be effected but others always are (including NSC).
Also not sure if it is connected but on a few sites when I scroll down the page after a few seconds the page jumps back to the top again, as with the other problems the same sites are absolutely fine on my sisters log in.
Why are these happening and how can I stop it?

Get your sister to log on, copy all the files and folders in your 'Doucuments and Settings' for your name to a new folder (except 'ntuser.dat') do a backup folder, delete your folder and create your ID again.

Try clearing out your browser cache, first.

Have you tried switching it off and then back on again?

What browser are you using? May I suggest if IE you use Firefox? It is far superior anyway.

Yes it's IE but so is my sister's, the lady I am a carer for uses firefox and we have had nothing but problems with it.

From internet explorer, Tools / Internet Options / about half way down the General Tab is Bowsing History. Click on delete.
