Wampserver 2.4 not properly working with ie 10 windows 8

Hello,

In my configuration (Windows 8, IE 10, Wampserver 2.4 32 bits) there is a problem with loading localhost and phpmyadmin. Sometimes it does not react. Especcially phpMyAdmin crashes.
In Firefox there are not such problems.

Is this a common problem with Internet Explorer?

Make sure your hosts file contains

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

HOSTS file lives in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and must be editied 'As Administrator'

Whats probably happening is Chrome and FF are using IPV4 and IE has decided to use IPV6 (i.e. ::1 ) but you dont have localhost defines on IPV6

Browsers, especially IE tend to use the IPV6 and IPV4 address range, but I have no idea why it picks one over the other and when.

If this is the problem, try with no changes to use IE with address 'http://127.0.0.1' and it should show the WAMP homepage.
