My IE has been messed up for a littlw while now and I
cannot figure out what is wrong.

Symptoms:
+ cannot download files from servers. msg: "IE can not
download ..... file may be unable..."
+ cannot view the source of a document.
+ cannot look at pages with Flash content.

what i have tried:
+ reinstalling Windows
+ erased all cookies and reset security levels. someone
told me that something is effecting how IE deals with
files.

Do you think that i have a virus? I cannot think of
anything else that to do.

help me...
 
Raymond,
+ cannot view the source of a document"

There may be several reasons .........

1) If a shortcut exists on the Desktop for Notepad, rename it.
2) Some users have reported Quick View Plus to be the culprit?

Close all instances of OE and IE
