Computer help needed!

I am having a problem with IE. Whenever I try to open Explorer, I get the following error message:
--

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

IE just won't work on my account (works fine on Brian's). I tried to download a fix up from Microsoft, but it tried to use IE to run it and wouldn't work. Help.

Use Opera! or Mozilla.

They're both better than ie anyway

Use Mozilla.

Firefox to be precise It'll import all of your IE bookmarks, too.

 

[JonBonJovi]

But all my settings,bookmarks are in there. I speek to my family who all live interstate and overseas that way.I need it fixed!

 

[The Amazer]

well use Opera or Mozilla Firefox to download that fix for ie

 

[Mark]

Xena, do you have the Google bar installed? If so, try removing/uninstalling it.

 

[Mark]

You can do that through Control Panel > Add/Remove programs, btw

 

[Southy]

yeah, Mozilla Firefox deary, it imports all the IE stuff

I am useless at PC crap and it worked out for me

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I don't see why people fellate other browsers so much. You just use a browser to look at shit, and IE has never seemed to fail for me.

 

[The Amazer]

It's all about the tabs!

 

[Lord Tim]

And the active X objects that IE just runs whether you like it or not and installs spyware and viruses all over your machine... Give me a secure browser like FF or Opera any day!

 

[Mark]

Although IE7 is out soon(ish), and I think it'll basically be a Firefox clone

 

[Goreripper]

We ended up making a new account and deleting the old one. Everything works fine now.

What Southy said - the man speaks no lies. IE is a piece of shit; since I discovered Firefox I no longer use it.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Why is it a piece of shit?

 

[Mark]

Insecure, doesn't render pages according to web standards, and insecure (worth mentioning twice).

 

[KoichCPA]

Also, it's shit

 

[Southy]

shit you say?

 

[KoichCPA]

Yes, Shit
