Computer help please!
 
This window keeps popping up saying 'Internet Explorer needs to close the window,some reason blah,sorry for the inconvience' and it's been happening for more than a week now!

It's so annoying because it's happening all the time and I keep having to re-open my windows and I've had video's loading before that I've had to re-start.

Anyways I was wondering if anyone had any clue what was wrong and how to fix it pleaseeeee??

i don't know how to solve it? but all i can recommend is that you get GOOGLE CHROME, it much faster and more user friendly?

If you're on Vista, then I think it's to do with the OS, because I'm on Vista and I'm always getting errors like that, but it never usually closes down. It says it will, but it doesn't lol. I always get other random popups as well, like
"Superfetch has experienced a problem and must now close down." WTH is Superfetch? lol.

If you're not on Vista, then that whole paragraph was a waste of time. lol.

Annie 06-05-2009 10:22 PM

Malwarebytes -anti malware

^^ Download that and see if it finds any Trojan viruses and if it does that might help.

If not get back to us.

Laura, I misread your original post. I thought it was pop-ups and when I realised it was ie errors, I deleted my post to you.

However, if you still want free adware removal.. spybot is free. Here's the download linkage:

Donations are optional. :D

'To see what data this error report contains. Click here.' - Click on the 'Click here' and post what it says, or post a screenshot.

Princess 06-05-2009 10:27 PM

Yes Annie that's it! I just did a free scan for spyware and I have 742 infected files!!! But the thing I used just looks for them,don't know how to get rid of them!

Does that thing get rid of them too Linda??

lily. 06-05-2009 10:28 PM

Yup Laura.

Thanks everyone :hugesmile: I'm totally useless!

Annie 06-05-2009 10:31 PM

Cool - hope that works. There should also be a thing when it detects all the virus files etc that says delete or replace and you can delete the bad ones.

lily. 06-05-2009 10:34 PM

Anytime Lauralou.. :D

Princess 06-05-2009 10:38 PM

Urgh it was this stupid thing I downloaded like 2 weeks to watch Grey's Anatomy and I found it somewhere else so I never used it. Forgot to delete it,argh.

Think the thing is getting rid of all the bad thingys now....

Annie 06-05-2009 10:47 PM

Aw I downloaded something a month ago to watch GA. And it was the Trojan virus. :bored:

Princess 06-05-2009 10:52 PM

Damn GA! I deleted what I downloaded,the virusy thing is taking agessssssss.

Princess 06-05-2009 11:10 PM

ARGHHH now my TT DVD isn't playing properly!!! I hope it's to do with the virusy thing taking ages and my DVD isn't broken or something!

lily. 07-05-2009 08:08 AM

Princess 07-05-2009 02:12 PM

Often with these free scans they exaggerate how bad things are because they want to get you to pay for their software.
