| | IE8 issues... Hello all, Windows 7 is going great so far but after a few hours of use IE8 quit working. When executing IE it flickers for a sec like its going to open then closes. There is not a process running for it either. I can't figure out how to fix it. I couldn't find an install for IE8 that I could try reinstalling with. I keep getting "Internet Explorer 8 is not supported on this system etc." There is not a vista or Windows 7 install on the MS site... Anyone had this issue? It was working fine at first... No application errors or clues in the Event Viewer either. Any help appreciated, thanks! |

| | Alpha02, You can use step 2 to go through the Control Panel to open Internet Options to do this.  |

In XP you can launch IE in a safe mode which disables all browser add-ons. Can you do that in Windows 7? I wasn't able to locate that executable if so... Ideas? open start menu and type internet explorer.... the no addons is basically the safe mode you are looking for... |
