    Which antivirus programme are you using Chris. I had this problem ony in IE8 runing Bitdefender in the background. After it reach some number in download, for example 10MB of downloaded files, everything froze up. While using Mozilla or Chrome things were working fine. After choosing between IE and Bitdefender, i obviously choose IE :) Cos it's simply the best browser, still.

    I still do not know it Fix It worked.  These Fix It windows came up just as messed up as before.  Additionally, there are graphic problems in the taskbar below.  The Windows there only display an "E".

    Besides the problems restoring my toolbar, which I am not sure got fixed, print and edit commands (i.e. copy) do not work.  Print buttons freeze and the right click menu does not come up.

    Still cannot log into secure websites like Amazon.  Amazon asks to enable cookies, and cookies are enable, yet I still cannot log into Amazon...even after running MS Fix It

    Still cannot log into secure websites, place any orders online, or access any sites that require "enable cookies" no matter how many times I reset.  Cannot even access the "Reset Internet Explorer Settings Fix it Live!"  This is getting very frustrating.  Cannot use the Mypoints.com points for reading emails, either, for quite some time.

    Did nothing for IE7; unstable, no toolbars. IE7 was reinstalled after same problem, which began when IE8 first installed. Suspect: files/keys lost due to aggressive antivirus (Avast!) which cannot be disabled for software install, and possibly Spybot S&D. Also: Microsoft updates which require reboot (which re-enables security - antivirus and registry protection) then tries to write new files, keys before user can disable security... Try back to IE6 ? (offline with no a/v etc)

    I am experiencing a problem with typing  messages on the internet.  In the middle of my typing the screen that I am typing disappears.  As in losing the message I am unable to retrive the message.   To be more accurate the page dances around as if I am driving and attempting to take video shots.
