Bit of a problem after security checks

morzov

Hi

Carried out the security checks recommended - which thankfully found nothing amiss. However, now have a problem closing down the computer - displays a box with message "End Program - IEXPLORE.EXE" - program not responding

I suspect this has something to do with internet explorer - this now seems very unwilling to open unless I double click several times when I start my computer.

Anyway bottom line is that computer will not close down unless manually turn it off :rolleyes:

I'm running windows XP BTW

Does any kind soul know what may have happened and how to fix things?

Cheers morzov

Thanks all - appreciate the responses and may change internet browser in the future but for now would like to fix the specific problem with IE

alphawoo

ie has no legs to stand on when it comes to internet browsers.
if you uninstall it andget a different one, or ie again it should be good

Thanks Corretto - taken alook at that link but seems pretty complicated to me and actually not strictly relevant to my specific problem - so will await a specific fix but thanks anyway
