INTERNET EXPLORER NOT WORKING.

[TheRedDevils11]

Internet Explorer not working after repairing Windows Xp. I tried to
uninstall later version of IE and repair Windows Xp again. I can use Internet
Explorer after this but when I reinstall Internet Explorer 7, it will not
work. There is nothing happen when I click on the IE icon.

Backup your personal data, then do a format & clean install of Windows.
Please note that a Repair Install (AKA in-place upgrade) will NOT fix this!

After the clean install, you'll have the equivalent of a "new computer" so
take care of everything on the following page before otherwise connecting
the machine to the internet or a network and before using a USB key that
isn't brand-new or hasn't been freshly formatted:

Is this the only way to repair my IE??

Windows is what's broken, not IE. Yes, that's the only way to resolve your
hijackware problem. (No, it's too late now to install an anti-virus
application.)

My computer dowsn't have any virus.

And how have you determined that?

What anti-virus application or security suite was installed when the problem
started and was your subscription current? What anti-spyware applications
(other than Defender) were installed? What third-party firewall (if any)?
