What version of Internet Explorer are you using? Try using a 3rd party browser such as www.mozilla.org

I've started using mozilla.org at home and here in the office... haven't had any probs yet... i'm enjoying the tabs...

Oh, and btw, Dani here is the reason why i'm on mozilla now... she suggested i use it... oh well, hopefully it continues to run smoothly...

Try to repair IE (this is for IE6):

1. Click start, cursor up to settings, then click control panel.
2. Next, click add/remove programs.
3. Scroll down to "Microsoft Internet Explorer& Tools..".
4. Highlight it, then click add/remove.

A box pops up, with the option to repair.
Select it, and allow it to run it's course.

Reboot.
