I seem to have an issue where IE sometimes has issues launching/loading. I'll check taskmgr, and its loaded with about 10MB of memory, but obviously no visible window. If I end the tasks, and open again, it might work.
I primarily use Firefox, however I want the freedom to use IE if I need to. Oddly, I also use the new AOL Explorer (IE-based core), it works just as good as Firefox for all intent and purposes.
Anyhow, thanks in advance. Here's my log:
