I have been having problems with my microsoft internet explorer, everytime I
try to view a web site this comes out "cannot display page" or when I am view
a web site this starts poping up everywhere "small boxes of internet
explorer" which will eventually lockup my desktop. Please help I don't know
what to do.

Have you attempted to scan your system for Spyware and viruses? the multiple
pops of IE seem to suggest one or the other is present (probably both). I
would check you HOST file for anything "odd" as well as the registry.

Start by doing a thorough check for malware. Is your AV current with
current AV definitions? Run all scans in safe mode. Also run the
following programs to look for other forms of malware:

Run these programs to check for spyware/malware. After installing
update them, then boot into safe mode and run them. You should update
and run them weekly.
