Computer geeks - need browser/blogger help

For my tea blog I used to use IE8 when writing posts using blogger. I quit when the add image from file option stopped working. So I started using Chrome. Now it is doing the same thing. Oddly I went back to IE8 and it is working now. I don’t get it. I use Windows firewall and AVG free. I added blogger.com to my exceptions on popup blockers. I really like Chrome better after getting used to it. Any other ideas?

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

I don’t use blogger or IE, I use chrome and wordpress (which adds images with a drag and drop method)

make sure your browser is updated, along with stuff like flash / java. If it acts wacky, just rebooting the browser works sometimes, as your browser could of updated its self and stuff might of got messed up or needed a reboot to take effect.

Chrome automatically updates your Flash, so you don’t need to manually update it. Go chrome://extensions/ and see if anything is running. Another plugin may be blocking the uploader. The other thing to try would be to upload your photos separately and link them with HTML.

I found a help forum post saying this was a known bug in IE. Apparently the fix affected Chrome because it works now in explorer. Why do they have to tinker when something works? New is not always better.
