Wierd lines appearing on web page

[crondeau]

When looking at this website - http://www.halcosoftware.com/about.html I've been told that if one moves up and down using the scroll bar, white lines appear on the page. My client is using IE6. I haven't been able to reproduce this effect on the 5 machines that I've checked.

This is a screenshot of what they are seeing

Does anyone have any idea of what could be causing this? My guess is that their browser doesn't have full css support since this doesn't happen when they visit sites that are coded with "old school" tables.

Many thanks and happy new year!

Well I've tried it on a variety of browsers and versions on both PC and Mac and I can't reproduce it. Find out what browser and version they have. The only main culprit I haven't checked is IE Mac.

The browser used in IE 6.

It seems like the lines appear when one use the mouse pointer on the up arrow to move back up the page. It doesn't happen when you just slide back up.

maybe they have a super slow computer?

It's a poor graphics card on a slow PC with insufficient memory. I get similar odd effects on my oldest PC in MS Word. It goes away if I scroll again.

I didn't have any problems viewing the page on that old PC, however. It probably isn't poor css support, otherwise the page would be displayed poorly in other ways, and probably even without scrolling.

Nope, can't get it to do that.

As the others said it might be an old machine. If not then they probably need to have a clean up and empty out all the temp files, clear some gunk, defrag etc to speed the poor thing up.
