It's not an error, it's a new "feature" in Vista and IE7..

When you say "die" what do you mean? But Redleg is right, FireFox is a MUCH better browser and its free, so there is really no reason not to use it.

I have IE7 too....so far...so good. havent had too many problems yet...Also have Vista....not too thrilled about vista....tryin to get used to it but id much rather XP....

Vista Flu, there's a lot of it going around at the moment.

Here,..... take two asprin and call me in XP Pro.

It just said IE has failed, and shuts down. The screen goes white and shuts down.

I am really upset because I had over 300 sites in my links area they are gone, I use firefox now, it aint the best I don't really like it, keeps making you add on, and most of the sites don't seem to appear on firefox, which really P's me off.

its just alot of work for nothing, and I set firfox as my default and still some areas of the computer are off limits because the are set for IE7 that don't work at all.

CrazyLilCajun @ vista i find it very use to use now, remember the old Dos systems, treat it like that you will be fine. You have to alot more in vista than XP.

Spike I can't change the Operating System because I am on a government net work that requires all computers on the same OS.

TI I try to reinstall it.

Redleg just what am I going to do with you?

Because we access restricted areas on the net they need to see what we do.
