Hello all..I have AOL and Internet Explorer ( all new versions)..and AOL works..but lately Internet Explorer hasn't. It used to work better, but now...it only loads some websites and with other websites it will just keep trying to load but nothing comes up..I have done most of the troubleshooting offline but nothing seems to work..

Do you have a firewall installed? Is Internet Explorer accepting cookies? Any web controls installed, etc.? Operating System?

Hello, Not to long ago, a cousin of mine came to my house and deleted a few things on my computer, ever since then, my computer(AOL and I.E) has not been opening all sites over lack of Cookies and Javascript, I've tried troubleshooters but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me?

1)Tell your cousing not to mess with your computer.
2)Don't post the same thing 4 times
3) Start a separate thread to get info.
