Good morning All,
I am looking for some assistance with my home computer. Evertime I open an IE browser, it loads my home page fine, although anytime I direct it to another site using either the address bar, or the Google search bar, the browser window closes. I do not click on anything or really even move the mouse, but it just shuts the window on it's own. Occasionally I will get an error message saying "The application failed to initialize properly. Press OK to continue" but that only happens once every dozen times or so. I have run a virus scan using Norton Corporate version, and also a spyware check using AdAware.
I am running XP (not an original copy) and IE6 I believe.
This same thing has occured in the past, although not nearly as frequently as this (maybe once a month or longer) and never after opening one page and not clicking on anything.
It is getting frustrating not being able to have the internet at home... If anyone can help me understand what the problem is, or what I can do to fix it, it would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you very much!!
Kristy
