IE shuts down when attempting to search

[Guest]

Hi all -
Does anyone have a fix? When I attempt a search using Google, my IE just
shuts down completely. This just started today. Thank you.

Could be a lot of things... Is the computer clean of viruses/spyware?

Check at "Windows Live Safety Center"

If you don't have any antyspyware installed then you could install the
Microsoft's Windows AntiSpyware program. See this site:

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1
(http://aumha.net/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
