My computer's internet explorer 6.6 starts up and then closes with no error messages. How do i fix it.?windows 2000

The simple solution that will fix this type of problem is to:

A) run antispyware programs such as Lavasoft or Spypot to clean-up any spyware infections.

B) Ensure your anti-virus program is up to date and run it.

If this does not work, then do the following:

1) click on control panel

2) click on internet options

3) click on programs

4) click on reset web settings

5) when the reset web settings window box appears, click YES

If you have done this correctly, a window box will then appear and say "Your web settings have been set to thier original Internet Explorer defaults"

This should fix the problem. As the other users have said, use a better browser such as Netscape, Firefox or Opera and you will definitely have fewer problems with viruses and spyware.

It appears to be the issue with Spyware.

To resolve the issue, we have to install anti-spyware software and remove the spyware from the system. It is recommended to download Spysubtract software from the following weblink:

probably, it had virus.

You can try to reset the internet explore.

try to download a firefox. (Mozilla Explore)

go to www.firefox.com
I suspect your computer has spyware. Maybe you should scan for computer for viruses or download Lavasoft's anitispyware software.
Get Firefox %26amp; you'll have no problems.
reinstall. that fixes a lot of computer issues.;)
Go to the System settings in the Control Panel, then go to the Advanced tab.

Hit the Error Reporting button and enable error reporting for windows operating system and programs

Then try to reproduce the IE crash and see what's causing the error.

You can also hit the stop button at the top...to cancel the current action and then try to reset your home page to say google.

Also i would suggest that you go to : tools... internet options

then hit the security tab

once there highlight each one of the icons above and hit custom level and then the reset defaults will apear.click reset defaults and hit apply for each of the Icons.

hit ok when done

if you get the IE to finnally load do an online spyware scan with

also you should download

AdAware SE from here:

if you are still having problems you should try this:

download Hijackthis

It will take some knowledge of what to disable or there are forums that can help with the determination of the problem.

Good Luck

P.S. if you have too many spyware infections say 350 or more you may have to reload.

It could take hours to get rid of this amount of infections and you may have better spent time securing data and reloading.
Why don't you try Firefox as a browser, instead of Internet Explorer. I do, and it works great. It's free, much safer than the Microsoft rubbish, and you can install some great extensions. The only inconvenience is that it takes a bit longer to start up, but not too much.

You can read an article on Firefox at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FireFox

You can download Firefox on: http://www.firefoxinstall.com/

Just give it a try, I'm sure you'll love it.
