anakainosis 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2005 Most people do not care for IE because there are plenty of problems with it; if you would be interested check out Firefox as an alternate browser. What`s great is it`s a free download and it operates similar to Internet Explorer! http://www.mozilla.org/ Good luck! _vti_cnf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seeking_truth_1 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2005 Sounds like there could be multiple problems with your computer There isn't a silver bullet to fix all of them At least one's that work well. Forget Norton Utilities and the like First, if you computer is XP and it just began doing this, try doing a system restore to a point where the computer was working well. A day, week or several weeks ago. If you don't have XP and are using 98/ME/2000 then you may want to try some of the suggestions below. By the way, before beginning ANY type of system cleaning/fixing, be sure to back everything up To begin: Mozilla works great, but what you are experiencing sounds more like a computer that needs a good cleaning There are a few steps Virus scan - There is a real good and free antivirus you can download at AVG Antivirus Registry Cleaning - The system registry is a groups of system files that keeps track of where all the programs, how they load and how they work with other system components. Over time, the registry gets messed up from installing and uninstalling programs. You can try Microsoft Regclean. It's free from Microsoft. It's isn't the best, but it will help address some of the problems. There are other registry cleaners that range between 15.00 - 30.00 that work much better. System Tune Up - Once you've killed the viruses and cleaned the registry a system tune up can be a good step. Utilities like Smoker will do nicely. Try Smoker Home Page. It's trial ware that you will have to buy after a few uses. It gives you enough to see if it enhances your system If you need, here is a page that has several utility software titles that can assist PC World Utilities Page Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
