Typing is slow in Facebook text boxes, characters take a while to appear an you sometimes have to hit keys multiple times before they appear. All other websites and applications seem fine.
I am running Windows XP SP3. I have done all windows updates and as well updated Java and Flash.
I have downloaded Chrome and this issue does not exist in Chrome... it remains with IE8.
Copy the text between the dotted lines below, but not the lines, and paste it into a new Notepad document. Save it as a TXT file named anything (xpajax.txt would work) then rename that txt file toxpajax.reg. Right-click> Merge that REG file.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_AJAX_CONNECTIONEVENTS]
"iexplore.exe"=dword:00000000

Let me know if this fixes the problem.
For whatever reason, I had the same problem but the .reg extension won't give me the merge option; it recognizes the extension as a regedit document. This could be from my own dinking around as this is a development box. In any case, I manually added the registry entry and it fixed the problem.
Thanks for the fix but I'm still wondering what caused it?
