IE Sucks the Big One

I haven’t had Internet Explorer in a few weeks now because, surprise, surprise one of the extensions is keeping it from starting up. According to everything I’ve read thus far on the internet about getting good ol’ IE to start back up, I have to RIES. Lovely solution, fantastic even! I was elated when I found out that the solution to my problems was so freakin’ simple.

Too bad I was dealing with IE. Internet Explorer still will not start and while my brother got to open somehow with a command prompt, I can’t get it to do anything other than crash, so I pretty much fail at life.

Don’t be so hard on yourself… especially, since it is IE that fails at working. sighs Maybe a re-installation of your OS will solve the problem : yeah I know… but it might.

Or you might just migrate to a Mac/Linux based OS.

Maybe you can try re-installing IE (assuming you’re on IE7)? Or maybe you can clear the Application Data in your account. Hope it helps!

Lol, I don’t get why people want to get rid of IE on their systems. I’m using Opera for a long while now and still I’ve got IE on my machine. Mostly due the fact that some online things need it, but if they didn’t. I wouldn’t take the effort of getting rid of it either.

But anyway, to get it fully back you could try at ‘Add/Remove Programs’ then ‘Add/Remove Windows Components’ and re-select it there. Probably you’ll need a Windows CD, but it’ll help I guess. If not, probably a re-install would be needed.

And don’t be so hard on yourself, IE just sucks. I would agree on that.

Ugh, that sucks. I hate IE, it never worked for me, and if it did, it was painfully slow. Good luck with fixing the problem tho.
