Send back your computer. That's what I would do. Or get a different operating system.

Sorry, I can't help you past that.

You might want to try uninstalling IE, download the newest version of IE and install it. You shouldn't have to do a system restore if one program isn't working, unless it's due to a virus/worm.

You can find the newest version of IE at: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). You might also want to try their support pages ([Link](Mouse over link to see full location)) to see if anyone else is having this issue. It's a good chance that someone else is having the same issue and that Microsoft has the solution you are looking for.

Also, make sure you are running virus protection and that your virus definitions are up to date. You might also want to consider downloading some free adware (lavasoftusa.com) and spyware ([Link](Mouse over link to see full location)) removal programs and running a system scan with those as well. There is the possibility that you have adware and/or spyware programs that are hijacking your browser.

Good Luck.

Well, i finally found a good questoin, unlike most the teen drama ones i like this one. IE is crap man prolly the reason you got this problem is because your loaded with spyware and adware. Download Firefox its a great little browser that shouldnt intefere with your other programs. I suggest reinstalling IE and see if that works.
