Re: iexplorer.exe is "running" but no browser appears

David and Robear!

Have you two anything against that I copy your solutions, with references to
you of course, when giving advice in the one and only Swedish NG? I think
your solutions are good when fighting virus and the like and since you have
it all set and done I would much rather just copy it into a post when
replying. Is it okay?

Kind regards,

Gunilla.
