Internet Explorer Screwed Up

[flamehawk]

Arrghhhh, ******* spyware.

A few days ago I accidently pressed yes in one of thsoe Spy Ware installation pop-up things. So I scan with my Anti-Spyware program (Ad-aware, and SpyBot) and get rid of it. But since then, every once in a while (every few minuits) one or two of my Internet explorer windows stop responding and I have to end task which is getting really annoying. Any idea how to fix it?

thanks in advance.

Opera is SUPERIOR to IE anyway

That's true. I use both at the same time, IE always has issues.

Cool, heard about Opera, I think I'll download it later.

if you reinstall windows, you wont lose any of your files. what it does is just put fresh windows system files but you'll keep all your personal files, drivers, configuration files, etc.

Damn, IE keeps crashing everytime I try to download it. Lol as though it knows I won't be using it anymore. Oh well, will get a friend to send it.

Damn, you guys are right! Opera is awesome, never am I going back to IE, so much faster, better layout etc. etc.

And damn I had to restart my computer and when I come back Opera restores all the webpages I had opened! Awesome
