Internet Explorer

[Guest]

My Internet Explorer (XP) gives an error and closes.
I've tried to download IE6 sp2 and install it but the version I have is more
recent and it doesn't allow it.
The solution I see is to de-install it and install IE6 SP2 or re-install it
from the CD, but I don't know how to do it.
Questions:
1. Under XP how can I de-install Internet Explorer or,
2. How can I re-install it
Thanks.

Go to the Control Panel from your start menu. Click on Add/Remove Programs.
Select the icon that says Add/Remove Windows Components on the left of the
window. You should see the Internet Explorer icon in the list. Uncheck it
and click Ok. This will uninstall I.E. for you. Hope this helps.

Hi Radar,

The errors in Internet Explorer are caused by third-party add-ons, or
malware in most cases, and reinstallation of Internet Explorer may not be
necessary (and may not fix the problem, depending on the exact error
message)

Run these malware cleaners:

1. Ad-Aware

2. SpyBot S&D

3. CWShredder

Update 1 & 2 before running a scan.

Then, run a full system virus scan with fully updated definitions. Try Trend
Micro's Sysclean package (free), it's capable of eliminating keyloggers,
trojans etc.
