All IE windows freeze

Guest

Can I know what can I do to stop IE from getting frozen. When I close the
program and report the error to Microsft, they just tell me that can be
virus, spyware or Add-ons, but the dont give me a specific answer. I tried
disabling all add-ons, I scanned the computer with Windows Defender and
McAffee and there's no viruses nor spyware.
What can I do then??

Hi :)

You don't mention the version of Windows you are using, which really is a
must when asking for help in the newsgroups, but, try the following as it
may apply
to your OS and see if it helps:

Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Be aware, your Anti-Virus won't detect all types of warez, Trojans, malware,
worms, etc., and neither can other adware or spyware related programs such
as AdAware and SpyBot. They don't have the proper definitions. They must
also be run in Safe Mode with Hidden Files enabled in order to fully scan
all files. Even if you have run such programs and nothing shows up, it does
not mean your system is clean. It takes a series of programs to fully clean
your machine. *Some very aggressive and damaging variants of malware can
replicate themselves repeatedly, or mutate, if not removed properly.*

Download and install HiJackThis. This is one of the most important steps.
Follow all instructions carefully. This program should be run in Normal
mode.

I am very curious to know what happened with this. My system is doing the
same thing running Windows XP PRO 2002 SP2 and IE6 SP2. Please let us all
know if this is helpful.
