:
HI, I can’t access my internet; it closes after a few seconds. Also I can’t
access internet properties. The icon in the control panel has no writing
under it??
This all happened after I did a system restore yesterday after installing IE
8 beta 2 from the Microsoft download centre.
I have re installed IE 7 but still no change.
Any help is much appreciated. Please be patient with my replies as I am
working shifts. Thank you
Run a thorough scan by doing the following steps:
=>... Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet
Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window
you will see these Options:
General | Security | Privacy | Content | Connections | Programs
| Advanced .
Click on General Tab (1st Tab on the left) and you will see a Button called
[ Clear History ..] click on it to clear your History caches, then click on
[Delete Files..] to delete Internet Files created over the time, click on [
Delete Cookies...] to delete your cookies left by visiting websites.
= Then try to Disable the Add-Ons on your Browser somehow installed on your
browser, On how to disable the Add-ons follow this:
