Internet explorer problem i think !!!

Every time i want to uses my address bar going down
the arrows i click on it and my computer freeze everytime!!!

i press control -alt -delete and nothing i have to press reset
on my case to restart.

Amd i remember to repair my internet explorer you have
to go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components - select Internet Explorer and remove it - it won't remove, of course, but the repair function works behind the scene...

But i don't have it on Add/remove i know they is another way around but i don't remember !!!

Now i just realise that when my connection it's not (ON)
56k user the bug it's not there anymore???

So my connection or internet explorer !!!

 

What OS is it?

 

Winblow!!!

Sorry i forget to say it Windows 98SE 4.10.2222.A

 

First of all are you running IE Version 6.00.2800.1106 with the latest updates?

 

Internet Explorer

I am using internet explorer 5.5 SP2 4807.2300

 

Have you done a virus scan?
have you empty out your garbage.Have you done a ScanDisk yet followed by Defrag
Any reason why your not running IE6

 

Internet Explorer Repair

If you are running IE5.5 in Windows 98 Here is what you do. click start/programs/accessories/system tools/system information/ Click on tools when the dialog box comes up there you will see Internet repair. Click on that and that's It. By the way you didn's say what os you were using. I just assumed that you was in Windows 98.

 

D'HO !!!

jujet84 done all that. And why i don't run IE6 because i don't
work well with win98SE.Crash-O-Rama !!!

fredje1 I try that but nothing happen(no dialog box comes up)
so i am stump !!!

If you followed what I had said to the letter You should have found the system information which has several tabs to click on starting with internet explorer Repair tool \ direct X \ Windows report tool and the list goes on and on ending with version conflict. But you must have the system information off the accessories tab. Do you have the CD ROM That has Windows98 Se ON? If so you can go into the cab files and extract Ie5 and reinstall it in your computer. If not you can give me your address and I will send you a CD Rom with IE5.5 Sp2 ONLY. Have fun?//////????

 

D'HO D'HO

yes kodo i have deleted cache, cookies etc.

And fredje1i have followed to the letter what you said but
nothing happen when i click internet repair tools nothing

So back to square one i try deinstalling my connection and reinstall i see what it do !!!

Nope !!!

I have try reinstalling my connection but no still the bug!!!
At first this thing was only freeze for 1or 2 secondes.

The only things not working is this lillte thing the rest work fine
no crash is just a little annoying.

You knows this thing begin after installing regsupreme 1.0
i have the backup to restore my registry but still the bug!!!

if the damn repair internet work i will be okay.....but NO.

 

Does it freeze your computer in Safe Mode?

I know you can't get on the net there, but you can open IE and see if the address bar freezes you there.

 

Re: D'HO D'HO

Send me your address and I'll mail you the CD ROM that Has IE5.5 SP2 and you can install it over your present IE.

Re: Nope !!!

bummer, I wanted to see if the history drop down in that would lock you up as well.

 

Something new!!!

I have update my IE to Version 6.00.2800.1106
but the bug still there.

When i click the history bar hit freeze i press alt-ctr-del and
nothing got to push the reset on my case.

But something new if i start my IE with out my connection
and working with out connection.then click on my history bar
everything is okay then i connect then click the history bar again
then everyting is fine WOW i am baffle !!!

i know when i click my history bar my hard drive start(light on) ???

 

I am having the same problem: cannot use address bar in IE 6.0 without freezing. When I open in safe mode address bar does not freeze.

 

Have you done a on line virus scan?
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
What am I thinking you can't get on net.

 

Okay this thread is 2 years old ?!?

Just to tell you i have fix this problem by going in tool->internet options->
General-> clear history ,delete cookies,delete files and reboot.

hope this help....

 

Does it matter if the thread is old? Should I start a new one? I'm a newbie here.

I was unable to run Housecall (keeps freezing), but I have d/l and run AVG Free from this site. I have already cleared history, cookies, etc.

Also, forgot to mention that in IE, it's only the address bar that freezes - hyperlinks and favorites work fine.

I cannot open My Computer or use Browse in any dialog box.

 

Desaree, yes, I suggest you start a new thread. If you think it's a software problem, post it in that forum and be as specific as you can about the problem, Include info on your computer, IE and Windows versions and SPs, etc. I'm inclined to think it's more than just an IE problem since My Computer and Browse don't work properly---may be a general OS problem that only a reinstall would solve. I don't suggest doing that at this point, though.

If there's any suspicion that it may be a spyware/virus problem, I suggest you read Major Attitude's stickies in the spyware forum and work through them. You might have a better indication after that of whether it's spyware or not, then you can post on that forum if need be.

Good luck!
