I use Internet Explorer 8.0. I am really anal about keeping my software up-to-date on my computer but got so tired of Farmville and Facebook loading soooooo slow. I searched for fixes. I found suggestions like editing the Registry (which you should NEVER do unless you know what you are doing) or running a .dll file from the command prompt, which did not work.
I wanted a fix that the general public can use and found it.

- Update to IE 8.0, if you have not done so already.
- Go to Microsoft's solution page.
- Close Internet Explorer.
- ONLY DO OPTIONS 1 AND 2: (Click to enlarge)
- For Option 2, download and install "Microsoft Fix It".
- Checkmark the "Delete Personal Settings Box", then click "Reset" as pictured below: (Click image to enlarge)
This fix worked beautifully for me. Also, when I restarted IE, it asked me to set up/take a tour and I selected "Ask Me Later".
Please post any questions if you still need help. Give me as much detail as possible.

Hi DaRT. There are known issues with Internet Explorer. I would download and install Mozilla Firefox (click here for link to download). I like it since I can use Adblock and block advertisements.
Try using Firefox. If the problem persists you should contact Zynga Customer Support. Follow the directions listed on my friend's blog, The Dirt Farmer. State your issue and then ASK the customer service rep if you can have Farm Cash or a lot of Instagrows or whatever you want, "for your inconvenience." They are pretty good with giving you something when you ask for it. Sometimes you get to chat and sometimes you have to email them. Either way, 95% of the customer service reps give you something while they address your problem. They will tell you to use Google Chrome, which does not allow me to log onto Facebook for some weird reason. I like Firefox personally. You can update Firefox easily. Here are instructions: http://masteringfarmville.blogspot.com/2010/05/firefox-browser-and-farmville-problems.html
Good luck and let me know what happens.

When trying to send gifts to friends from the box that opens with your friends who have been working on their farms. When I click send I get this error:
ReplyDeleteError
An error occurred with FarmVille. Please try later
And I do not have IE 9, I have IE 8. However, I did upgrade to 9 then downgraded back to 8 because things on my computer were not working right. My farm has been working fine up until three days ago so I am not sure what happened. I installed IE 8 months ago. Please help!
DaRT see my reply in the above post.
