PC problem
« on: 15 December 2012, 20:25:53 »
Running Windows 7 Premium 64-bit. IE9. When I open another tab I get the page showing "most viewed" sites, then a window pops up saying IE has stopped working (although it hasn`t). I can`t close the window then the tab page shows that IE couldn`t recover the web page. After about 5 mins I can eventually shut the page. Only happens with IE not with Chrome or Firefox. Any solutions apart from scrapping IE

I dont know much about computers Rob, but if I'm stumped by anything like this I always try deleting and reinstalling. Got me out of a few holes and is really not that much hassle.
Better tthan waiting for an answer on here on a Saturday night.

Could be a Security Update didn't finish installing properly, check your Windows update history etc, could also try a fresh Install of IE as suggested, completely remove the old install first and probably wouldn't hurt to do a Disk Drive Check for errors and maybe run a full Malwarebytes check.

Tried that. They claim to have found in excess of 5000 faults :o and will fix it if I subscribe. BS.Uninstalled and re-installed IE9, still the same. Got to the stage now that if I open a new tab everything freezes and I`ve got to do a forced restart

CCleaner (The real one) works Rob, is free and shouldn't ask for an upgrade, download the free version only from their website here-

http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download

Same for Malwarebytes -

I concur Rob, CCleaner - free version - is a very useful tool, especially useful for clearing out unwanted Windows c**p. I also has a useful registry cleaner. :y
