I owe
miwasatoshi a huge reply. I haven't forgotten.
I have reinstalled the OS. I have reinstalled the browser three times. I have seen improvement everywhere, but I still can't scroll worth a dingus.
Contacting support tonight when I get home - and yup, it'll cost me. Oh, well. I'll admit I'm stumped. Everything else is fine - and the system is actually running better, overall so it's not totally wasted effort.
Also, no bloatware was found, outside of one ad loader. No viruses found.
But I'm sure something got through and fucked up IE. The home page was changed to some minor league search engine I'd never use on a bet.
*grump*
