my internet explorer windows keep closing when ever i try to open it up, i was having problems with it before so i download the newest version, now it wont stay open and restoring my computer does not help, im afraid its gonna be a pain to fix, thank you in advance for any help on this

What do you mean "restoring" your cumputer? Did you use a restore disk, last good settings, repair install, or something else?

by "newest version" do you mean the newest version of 7 or the 8 beta?

Is this just a problem in Internet explorer, or windows explorer as well?

If you boot to safemode (with networking) does IE work properly?

You should probably use firefox, opera, or even chrome instead of IE, but if you give me a little more info I'd be happy to see what I can do.
