Jazz and web surfing
 

For some reason whenever I have Jazz Jackrabbit 2 open I can't browse webpages. Anyone know why?

CPU: Intel P4 1700MHz
OS: Windows XP Home Edition SP2
Browser: Internet Explorer 6 SP2
JJ: Jazz Jackrabbit 2 1.24
Internet: via Ethernet from Cable Modem

Are you browsing sites with java applets?

Mainly it was this site.

As soon as I closed JJ2 it would go immediately to the page very fast.... but when JJ2 is open it hangs like it's waiting for a reply.

I had that problem too yes, and I think it's caused because of Service Pack 2, Service Pack 2 ruined all my computer

While JJ2 is running, it sucks up your CPU Usage, so other processes go very slowly. If you minimize the game, other processes speed up, but if you're in a multiplayer game, you'll time out if you leave it minimized for too long.

no, it's definately not a CPU problem.... everything runs just fine when JJ2 is open.... just can't browse.... and I don't think it's XP SP2 that's causing it...

Are you using any kind of firewall?

I was using the built in XP firewall.... but I turned that off in my check and it still doesn't work.

Do any other internet-related programs stop working? (e.g. Outlook, MSN, Yahoo)

hmm... very strange.... it appears it does work... just very very slowly..... I waited at least a minute this time... and now it works....
