I've stayed home now for THREE GOD DAMN DAYS going back
and forth trying to fix the issues I've incurred since I
downloaded IE 6 The most annoying is, well one of the
most annoying, it's all annoying. I have a problem
accessing internet options. I receive an error directing
me to the system administrator.... Who the phuck is my
system administrator. I can't delete my hotmail emails
without reading them first.... lovely. I hate Microsoft.
I'm tired and I'm sick and tired of having to look at this
piece of crap on my desk. I wish I could burn it. Give
me a god damn answer and do it now!

Close IE.
Open Regedit.
Find the value NoBrowserOptions and remove every instance of it.

You might try this from Mike Burgess first if you use SpyBot:
'Did you by chance run SpyBot's Immunize feature?
If so, you can unlock by unchecking the option to "Protect IE Control
Panel". See:

I think you'll find your answer here:

Use HijackThis to identify and assist in the removal of these bad guys.
**Post your files to http://forums.spywareinfo.com/, not here.**

NB: If you have ever downloaded HijackThis or CWShredder, it is urgent that
you upgrade to the latest versions before using them again. Due to a new
variant of the CWS Trojan, using either HijackThis or CWShredder on an
infected Win98 or WinME computer may lead to severe damage to that computer.
You must update to the very newest versions of these programs before using
either of them again, and you should get a new copy of CWShredder before
each and every use.

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.

Okay you demand an answer, well here it is.

I'll bet that you have not taken the time to even learn
the basics about your computer. If you did you might
realise that each operating system is different and then
you would have thought to tell us which one you are
running. Then we might be able to help with your problem.
Instead of b**ching and whining about the problem, try
some basic research. Did you read the material on
Microsoft's web site BEFOR downloading IE 6? Or did you
just download it and expect it to work? Have you tried the
IE 6 Help file?

There are lots of options besides firing off a nasty note
or burning your computer. Obviously IE 6 must at least be
partially working or how did you send this post?

Calm Down
