IE is mad, it closes some web pages

[JM]

Hello there,
I suppose if we didn't exist microsoft wouldn't exist
either so where's the support, FREE?
So... what happened is that I installed windows xp and
then I placed a cd. It tried to open the htlm page but
microsoft script appeared (boring...).
After that I was never able to open some pages, like
www.sam-cam-com. It simply opens the page and
zipzapzum... it closes it like magic.
I'm really frustrated. What can I do?
Anyone?
Thanks and cheers

Hi JM

This is an all too common problem with XP. Thus far, there does not seem to
be any one-fix-for-all that we can offer. Therefore, you might try the
following and see if it helps:

Uninstall the firewall in your AV if it has one.

For Free support, see here:
