:rolleyes: I can log onto ie and navigate and play games, etc, but when I'm done for the night and try to close ie, I get no response. I have to do the ctrl,alt,del. Now I can't even download either. What's up with this? I run McAfee, Adaware, ZoneAlarm, System Mechanic, CWShredder, HJT. I am running on Win XP Home.

:rolleyes: Pentium 4, 2.6 hz, 256 RAM, 40 Gb, Dell Dimension 4400 about two years old. Came already loaded with the Win XP and IE and Outlook Express pre-loaded. I keep everything updated and have service packs loaded. I also run Spy-Bot, Adaware, ZoneAlarm, and on this computer, McAfee Antivirus, all update weekly.

Does the above mean that you've solved the problem? If so, I'll mark this thread as solved.

Surfing Amazon for DVD´s, was right clicking on ¨open in new window¨now one of the windows wont close.
It minimises and maximises, but wont close and it doesnt show as an application when I open the task manager but the other windows do.
Not computer savvy which is why I registered here. Help! I dont know how to do the registry thing.
