internet explorer shutting down

anyone help? internet explorer is completely shutting down when i try and view some websites.....

 

Well,

I recently upgraded my browser to IE6 and is doing the same thing very often. I would see what version you are using, if it is 6. I would recommend using a lower version, I have never had a problem with 5 or 5.5. Or you could also try using a differnet browser. I use MYIE2 at home and never have problems with it.

 

What version of IE are you using

 

Internet Options > Advanced > uncheck Enable Third Party Browser Extensions.

Report back with results please.

 

thats a bit vague?

what OS are you using?

do you get an error message first or does the window just keep closing

are you using a firewall/anti virus/ad or spyware blocker

try and give as much info as you can did you read this

thanx for your help, peeps......ive reinstalled IE and unchecked the box.... seems to be workin

 

Thats not a fix friend. That was a troubleshooting step

That tells me (and you) that your problem lies within a Browser Helper Object. Those generally come in the form of toolbars and spyware.

It is activated by a subkey of this:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects

The latter is usually what crashes IE and Windows Explorer.

Run Ad Aware, Spybot, and/or Hijack This! to cure yourself. Then put the checkmark back to test.
