Within the past week whenever I use internet explorer it will inevitably
close out due to an error. It always references to appcompat.txt. I'm not
sure what this means, but it is quite annoying. Any help or suggestions
would be appreciated and to save some time here's what I've already tried.
Virus scans, online virus scans, security scans, scandisk, spybot S&D,
adaware, cookie deletion, temp delete, and a repair installation of windows
xp. Nothing worked. Thanks
