well i had another little episode. ie didnt crash but i experienced
some page errors due to a error coming up saying that security
setting was not set to allow activex controls to be displyed on this
page may not display right, with a error page at the bottom of
screen. it would load and seem to be ok. but it only, as far as i
know on yahoo and msn this time. netzero was ok. i ended up
reinstalling scripten and resetting internet options to autodetect
setting seems to be better. but still a bit slow loading pages. so i
also deleted the cookies and the temp folder. thought maybe there was
a corrupt file in there or cookie. still loading up pages a bit slow
but much faster than before that. probably cause now i have to go to
each place i've been going and it has to load from scratch and
restore the cookies for that place. after i go around it should be
faster after they get stored again.

oh yeah i forgot to say im using sp1 i have to sp2 disk but was told
because it would screwup the computer not to install it yet.

your HD and then install the programs from there and run them.
After you have IE access again, update all programs where possible
to get the latest definitions and run them again in Safe Mode to be
sure there are no lingering items on the system.
If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to
this thread with the details and any error messages.
Hope this helps

recently i went online to find some dragon themes for my wifes
login. i found some and installed them. come to find out they were
loaded with spyware crud. i removed them. i ran spybot and adaware
to see what was goin on. they pulled up a whole bunch-o-crud. i
deleted them. i ran nis2004 and it came up with 13 hits. it
removed only 3. i had to hunt down each of the rest of them one by
one and delete them. i use netzero highspeed. but everytime i try
to get online it loads up the netzero page and at the bottom it
says: done but with errors on page. it seems as though it is only
on the netzero site and only a few different pages on there that
it does that. and even sometimes i have to retry connecting 2 or 3
times cause as soon as the ie pops up it drops connection. i have
all the settings right. i have also left word to netzero about it.
i dont know if maybe some of that crud screwed up something either
on ie6 or netzero's software. i dont have sp2 installed and
probably wont for some time because i've been warned by a
technician that it would screw up my computer. anyway, my question
is, does anybody know whether or not i might need to reinstall
ie6, which i got the download from here, or maybe its just my
netzero software i might have to reinstall? you can email me at
(e-mail address removed) or i can check back here later.
