IE will not start

[Doug]

When I click on the IE icon all the icons on the desktop
disapear and the task bar goes away also. acts like it
restarts the desktop. IE never comes up. I can use
Netscape, Advent Browser, and MSN Explorer. Also if I go
to the control panel it does the same thing. Whats up???

Since we can't see your computer from here, it is hard to give you a
specific answer. However, many problems with IE stem from spyware on
the system. Remove spyware with Spybot Search & Destroy from
www.security.kolla.de and Ad-aware from www.lavasoftusa.com. Be sure to
update these programs before running them. These programs are free, so
run them both since they complement each other. It is best to run
antivirus and spyware removal tools in Safe Mode.
