When I click on my Internet Explorer on the first occasion and select a web
page it will not connect. I have to either refresh the screen or exit the
program and go back in again ? I have no viruses or Spyware causing any
problems. Enough Memory etc. The communications seems to be okay, connecting
to broadband services for email no problems. Should I just reinstall
Internet explorer or is something wrong in setup??
