IE problem
Is anyone having a problem with IE today? Each time I go into it and connect to a site it just closes down. When I go back to it I get the message that IE didn't close down the last session correctly and do I want to restore it.

Re: IE problem
Jim we'd need to know if it on Windows 7 or 8 etc.
A lot of files used in IE are also common in Windows Explorer.
Google has many solutions but it depends on your operating system.
I gave up some time ago ........ went to firefox.

Re: IE problem
Some viruses can do that. Run an antivirus scan

Did that and it came up clean. Perhaps reinstalling might work?dapope wrote:Some viruses can do that. Run an antivirus scan

Re: IE problem
I would give up on IE and just use Chrome or Firefox.
IE is not very popular at all now with only about 8% of internet users using IE

Chrome IE Firefox Safari Opera
61.6 % 8.0 % 23.6 % 3.7 % 1.6 %

Re: IE problem
I gave up trying to get IE working properly on Windows 8 and went to Chrome. It seems to work a lot better for me now. The main problem that I had was posting pics.
Good luck.

Strange, but as mysterious as it began it has now mysteriously "rectified" itself.
Thanks for the input.
