Greetings,

When I try to log on to the internet I am given the
following error message:

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

What gives? Any suggestions? I have no internet access
because of this.
 
Disable third-party browser extensions in Internet Explorer
1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click Internet Options.
3. Click the Advanced tab.
4. Under Browsing, clear the Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart) check box.
5. Restart Internet Explorer.

If this helps, read here for further troubleshooting:

John,

Yes. By disabling third-party browser extensions, we're telling Internet Explorer not to load the third-party plugins [legit ones and malware plugins]. If this helps, read here for further troubleshooting:
