Hello,

You might wish to try Mozilla's Firefox product. It is nice, fast, stable, and works well.

Mine was also a real mess. I ended up doing a complete recovery of
windows (XP). It resolved the problem. IE works great now. This
may be a little to drastic for you (at least at this point). Good luck.

How do you initiate the recovery process? I'm a novice.

Hey to all the newbies here! Unless you have a suggestion to help the original poster, you shouldn't post in this thread; you should start your own new thread for the best response!

Richard -- Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Microsoft Internet Explorer > Remove

Speaking -- Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Microsoft Internet Explorer > Repair (for IE). Check this thread to reinstall Windows: http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread6632.html

Mack -- You should follow the tips in this thread:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread5690.html
If you still have a problem, post a hijackthis log (explained in that thread) in the Security forum.

Firefox is a good browser but there are some sites you can not access with it, in particular Windows Update, so if you use it, you should keep IE as a backup.

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.

However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.
