I just turned off the internal browser and it seems to be working fine.  Thanks!

If I remember correctly, it may have something to do with pop up ads, which are common on these sites.

I hate to admit it, but it's been a really long time since even I've used Lyrics Editor. But... I think there's an option in it somewhere to filter out files that have lyrics. If not, you can just use the smartlist trick that Magic_Randy mentioned. It may perform better that way anyway.

And as for the whole internal browser thing... I wanted there to be a way that you could just highlight the lyrics you wanted and click a single button and have them automatically added to the file. It would just be easier than right clicking on the lyrics, choosing copy, closing the browser window, and then pasting them in. The down side to that is that it requires using .NET's IE engine, which, as Magic_Randy pointed out, did nothing to stop popups. So that's when I added in the option to use the default browser instead.

I keep thinking of getting back to this plugin and doing a couple of updates on it, but I always wind up finding other things to do to occupy my time with. It's good to hear people are still finding it useful, though. :)

Doof, I liked the feature that allows you to highlight and import.  The only problem is, it locks up.  I would encourage you to take another look at lyrics editor as this has become the primary tool to import lyrics for MC.  One other problem that I noticed is that when you place the cursor over a button the pop up explaining what the button does is cut off horizontally and it isn't readable so you have to select it to see what it does.

If it is helpful to use this thread to identify possible improvements to the lyrics editor I will be glad to post my observations as I continue to use lrics editor to fill in all the blanks in my database.

Doof, since there is alot of junk when you search with google is it possible to set up a search with the sites that are added under options?
