Internet Explorer freezing since SP2 installed
The computer is completely clean- I had a virus but it was eliminated with
help from another website. They certified me as clean based on my HijackThis log/ewido/etc. Even so, the virus was accidentally downloaded several months after my IE stopped working. My sister had exactly the same problem after she installed SP2 and we have almost identical Toshiba laptops. Any advice?

I am not using MSN Explorer excusively for web-browsing at home. Is there any way to fix Internet Explorer so I can use it once again? I tried uninstalling SP2 but that didn't help so I reinstalled it for security reasons. Thanks! Is the computer 100% virus and malware-free? If you think so, what did you do to determine this?

Did you visit the Toshiba support site and first check to see what needed to be done to your laptop ( updated drivers, BIOS, etc.) to prepare it for SP2? I advise you to visit the Toshiba support site and download their Win XP Sp2 troubleshooting utility. Just use their ASK IRIS search tool and search for XP SP2 documents. |
