Internet Explorer huge problems

[Byzantine Prince]

Ok I don't nomrally use internet explorer, but since it's the only one that can run hotmail I had to. WOW wtf hapened to it?!!? It was full of stupid little bars and it was so slow it almost permanently froze my comp.

Can someone help me get wid of this clutter with something? Like a free program?

Firefox works with hotmail for me.

As for IE, its probably got spyware on it. I suggest:

Ad-aware for removing spyware:

Hijack this for removing malware that hijacks your IE (changing the homepage, etc.):

Both free, both good.

Ahem...I don't know if this is the right place for this thread...

But anyway, my IE is clean...try right clicking in the top part and uncheck everything but standard, address and links toolbars. That might help. But beyond that, I have no clue.

I got Firefox!!!

Netscape had made my life very hard recently, it became very ennoying. For some reason it wouldn't expand all the way, and you had to minimize and resotre to get it right :dizzy2: . Also it would switch between firefox and internet explorer, NOT netscape!!! WTF?!? Also whenever it switched to internet explorer it would freeze everything. GRRRRR!!!

Ok well now my troubles are solved. Thank god I came to my senses and decided to switch to this. ~:cheers:

Thanks for your help guys. ~:grouphug:

Mayhap it is time to get a nice re-formatting job...

Just a thought. Ick. Makes me feel dirty thinking about it...thank God for DVD burners.

Firefox doesn't seem to display the org right for me. I'm using it now and the smilies bar is sticking out way too far to the right and the borders are kind of messed up.

same problem for me, al kalifah. firefox sadly isn't 100% great, but 99% ~;)

IE was freaking me out a while ago too. switch to firefox helped me out. ~:)

Good to hear you got it all sorted out BP.

I had a similiar problem with IE; turns out it doesn't agree with MS word and slows your comp to a crawl when both run at the same time. Now i use firefox ~:)
