Internet Explorer will not open!
« on: March 19, 2004, 08:02:40 AM »
When I try to open Internet Explorer, it prompts me that it encountered a problem and has to shut down and asks if I want to send an error report to Microsoft. I have had this happen before while working in it and it has always opened back up with no problem. Now it will not open at all. I am running Windows 2000. Any solution to this I may be able to do myself?

Just reinstall IE 6. that should fix it. If you dont have the installer for IE, open windows explorer (windows button & E) and then in the address bar type the URL of the site you want. if IE still crashed you could either do a windows reinstall or get 'mozilla' a brouser based on netscape. shich usually works just as well and is free.

If you could provide us with additional details about the error message such as the error code number, filename, etc, we may also be able to help you with the error. Otherwise it may be best to reinstall Internet Explorer.
