I've been having IE freeze up on me for no apparent reason, particularly when trying to veiw any sort of picture file. Does any one know that it might be?
PS: Any one that has to be a wiseass and suggest a new browser gets their post deleted.

If you have a broadband connection, I would suggest removing IE altogether if possible, then D/L ing it again from microsoft, OR delete and use your restoration disk to put it back. that's usuallywhat I do when I have a problem I can't ID, in addition to cleaning up the registry with Regsupreme, right fter running spybot, then adaware, then defrag, regsupreme, virus scan, delete proggie, reinstall proggie....

It's as updated as it gets. And it doesn't seem to be a spyware problem, I've run Spybot S&D and it's come back emtpy and so has AVG.ggs wrote:Of course the standard computing mantra:

Spybot doesn't find everything ... run HijackThis with caution (because if you don't know what you are doing it gets nerve wrecking).
Anyway IE no longer works for me, I might get around to re-installing it some day, but eh.
