IE not working
 

IE isn't working had some update on the computer this morning and now Ie wont work. any one having problems with their's. MSN is working and fire fox is working too.

Do a virus scan ASAP! I'm not saying that is the cause but there is a nasty IE vulnerability found this week and the bad guys are being quick to exploit it.

Also check your event viewer it should contain any errors relating to crashing or non responsive applications. Event viewer can be found via CONTROL PANEL->ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS->EVENT VIEWER.

Good luck.

Reboot again. Or uninstall the update and see if that fixes it. I haven't run into IE issues on XP or Vista from December updates. Look in your event log for the kb number.
If it's still an issue, post OS, browser version and patch number(s).

Doing a scan and found 1 infection already still scanning

:lol: I dont understand one thing you said there Brad. Man, I,m a dufus. :lol:

Well I did. lol doug you need a Bailey's and coffee come over and get one .

Sorry Doug, I'm used to talking to techs all day :)

OS=operating system, XP or Vista?
Browser version= IE 6 or 7
The event viewer will show which patches were installed, identified by the KB (knowledge base) number.

has any one else recieve a update for XP and Ie 7 from Microsoft. i recieved this this morning and after i updated the browsers wouldn't work. i had to restore my computer back to the 11th to get it going again,.

Yup I got the update on one of my two home machines this AM, it installed fine. No issues.

kb number?

There weren't any patches released this morning but there was an IE rollup patch that was released on the 9th (kb958215). This update has screwed a few people but not in a consistent way so I can't guess what to do about it. Outside of the standard "buy a Mac" and "install Ubuntu" type of advice of course. :)

It should be noted that this does not address the XML pointer problem that Snaz was talking about, there's no patch for that yet. Of course it could be that you got infected with something through that hole and then the patch you tried to install this morning failed because of it. If your scan reports no infections now maybe retry the update.
