IE is a problem. FireFox3 is the best!
Go with FireFox, I like it alot more and it just seems to run better. FireFox also allows you to do more things online, such as watch movies that IE won't run.

Anyone who likes IE has never used FireFox

Switch to Firefox!
firefox. IE messes up too muchh!
InternetExplorer all the way
definitely firefox
Firefox rox !!!
No. I think both are very good programs. Firefox is definetly the best substitute for IE. And if IE isnt working then, go with Firefox, becuase it has all the same capabilities, and gadgets and such. I am not sure what that message means, but try just using Firefox.
IE everday
Firefox is best
Check out KimKomando.com. She prefers Firefox.
IE bugs will always be in IE. Can't deny that.

It's not you, you don't have bug. lol.

I'm comfy with Firefox or FF, and I can easily add plugins which is unavailable on some browser.

Cool.

This is most likely caused by a browser "add-on" These are things that you add to your browser like toolbars.

Here is what I did to fix the problem:

Click on "tools" and then click on "manage add-ons" then select "enable or disable add-ons"

On the next screen disable ALL of your add-ons then close IE down completely. Reopen IE and then open a few websites. then try closing one. If your browser stays open then go back to your add-ons and enable them one at a time.

Note that each time you enable an add-on you will have to close your browser completely for the change to take affect.

Depending on how many add-ons you have this could take a little time but once you find the one that is causing the problem you can keep it disabled and then your browser should work fine.
Does this happen with any other applications? If so, I would not rule out the possibility that this is hardware related instead of software -- sounds like you could have a corrupted stick of RAM in your computer.

Do as the previous poster suggested and get the upgrade to IE7 -- it should replace any corrupted files and fix the issue. If it doesn't, look into your hardware.

IE problem - advertisement pop up?

Under my IE properties, I cannot change the home page address, when launch IE, it go to those advertisement page

Try this. Click start, in search box type in msconfig. If that search box doesn't come up click on run and type in msconfig. You will end up at a system configuration box. Click on the start up tab and look for the pop ups there. If not found there, click the services tab and look there. You need to know every thing in the pop up so you will recognize what you are looking for. If you find, un check the box or boxes. Write down all you un check so if you make an error you can go back and reinstate. There may be a hundred items in services tab so start at the bottom of scroll down box.

IE Defender is a rouge anti virus you should remove that thing before things get wrost. Then this what worked for me I went to start then went to disk cleaner. And I search view files then search for the date you had that problem find that file. It should be a unknown file and delete it. and try your internet brower and see if your problem is gone. Good Luck

I've just installed IE 7 and i can't use the "Manage Add-ons" option from the to

I can access "Manage Add-ons" through

=%26gt;Internet Options

=%26gt;Programs (tab)

=%26gt;Manage Add-ons

But, when i am on the Manage Add-ons window, it says that i have a few things enabled (i.e. Adobe Reader/Shockwave, etc), while IE is saying that i have add-ons disabled. This has been really frustrating. I've also reinstalled IE but nothing seems to work. Also in the Start Menu bar, right next to the IE icon has a text saying "No Add-ons" and when i do open up IE, there is a message saying "Internet Explorer is currently running with add-ons disabled" located under the tabs (under the menu bar). can someone help me out please? thanks in advance =)

Do you see your tools menu on the top of your browser? If not Right click a empty part of the browser and click the menu. You should now see the tools menu, Click manage addons from there!

IE no longer works on my computer for some reason. I can only use FireFox and I'm not too crazy

Two days ago IE just stopped working. This is what appears when I open IE window:

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:

You are not connected to the Internet.

The website is encountering problems.

There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:

Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to make sure you are connected.

Retype the address.

Go back to the previous page.

More information

This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

Internet connectivity has been lost.

The website is temporarily unavailable.

The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable.

The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.

If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

I don't care for Firefox. Any suggestions?

You might try to give yourself a chance with Firefox. I actually use it because it's safer than IE (less prone to hacker attacks, viruses, etc.) and more flexible (it's got add-ons that'll enhance your web experience.)

However, if you must use IE, then you can check the connections tab in the Internet Options and make sure that you haven't accidentally turned on/off a proxy server that you may need (if you're at work, or behind a firewall.)

You might also update your virus definitions to make sure that your IE options haven't been compromised by a virus (again, Firefox is better in the case of viruses.)

Barring that, if the problem just began, you could do a system restore if you're using XP or Vista. That could restore your options to the correct settings.

Best wishes!

Un-install IE and re-install it. It's gotten corrupted
That happens quite often with IE. There's really no reason for it %26amp; I don't know if anything can be done about it.

I know you said you didn't like Firefox, but if you just gave it a chance, I'm sure you prefer it over IE. You don't get thrown out of Firefox. It's much better.

Give it a chance!
Try to check your firewall (if you're using one) to see if somehow Internet Explorer has been denied access to the web.
I work in IT. 90% of the time, when Firefox works on a computer that is active on the net, and IE does not, it's because spyware has infected IE. The greatest thing about Firefox is that (at least compared to IE) it is practically bulletproof in getting fouled up by viral sites.

So in short, you probably have a virus or spyware or something. Using firefox/google, download these programs.

- hijackthis

- spybot

- ad-aware (www.lavasoftusa.com)

even before you install those programs go to norton's security scanner (or trend micro's house call) - and run a full system scan. If you get several positive results, you might need something stronger than those programs. But all computers should have those - especially hijackthis.

With hijackthis, you can get a snapshot of most of the areas that IE lets bugs into your machine, and then show them to knowledgable folks in a forum. Or take specific lines from your hijackthis log (or results), and then google them, to find out more about what is going on.

Anyway, that's if you want a clean machine. Then again, even if you get it fixed up, and go to the same kind of sites with IE, you'll probably get the same problems. It's probably better for you to learn to customize firefox so that whatever it is you like better about IE, you can just do it to firefox.

Firefox can do anything IE can do. It can also stop doing whatever it does that makes you dislike it. It's just a matter of add-ons.
Even I cannot do without IE. No compromise with anything else.

Just try to install IE 7, the latest version. I was having such probs, and now it is solved.

Enjoy IE!

IE 7 from yahoo every time I close one page thw whole IE 7 closes down.?

IE 7 from yahoo every time I close one page the whole IE 7 closes down. I installed yesterday at the advise from Yahoo the updated version of IE 7. Now if I have several pages open and have to close one of them down. I get a message saying : windows encountered a problem and have to shut down. Then all shuts down and I loose all info that I typed in one of the sites open. What can I do. It drives me crazy.

IE 7 from yahoo every time I close one page thw whole IE 7 closes down.?microsoft office

sounds like a problem with your ie7 installation, or a plugin you have is causing problems with ie7. Or, perhaps, you've got some spyware that's messing with ie7.

Things to try:

- running a spyware check (try spybot search and destroy)

- using firefox instead of ie7

IE 7 Icon help?

I had to reformat my hard drive and before I did IE 7 was ok but now that I reinstalled all the programs the IE 7 icon disappeared! I mean the icon is there but it has no form (like the way a file would look if you don't have the proper program to open it) and I already uninstalled and reinstalled IE 7 like five times and it won't fix it, the browser does work as it should it's just the icon appearance and also if I go to my favorites folder most of the icons look like IE 6 except for one that does look like IE 7 please help me to fix this. Thanks
