For some strange reason on our main pc our internet explorer is not working. As soon as you click on the icon to launch IE it come up with

"Internet Explorer has encounted a problem and needs to close We are sorry for the inconvenience."

Initially we thought we had a virus ran both sophos and norten anti virus with no joy. Any idea's without have to reinstall windows etc.

I still don't know what the problem was but I installed Mozilla which is another web browser and now it works well.

Suep Mozzilla is slightly different to IE but still does the same job. I need to work out how to unblock pop ups now.

If you want to try a real "Cool" Browser you could always try the free version of Opera.

Checkout their website at http://www.opera.com/ for a free download. I've been using it for sometime and have been able to stop all Popups. The free version has a very discreet advert in the top right hand corner, but it doesn't affect surfing at all.
