Re: IE7 Freezes

Start your troubleshooting with this:

"Internet Explorer stops responding, stops working, or restarts"

For the future: There is a separate newsgroup devoted to all versions of Internet Explorer (except for beta releases.)

I installed IE7 on my XP SP2 Home Edition machine which has a P4 3Ghz Chip and 1.5Gb Ram. It has recently started to freeze up, causing me to shut it down with task manager. This started with my home page, which now freezes up every time I try to open it up. Other miscellaneous web sites open with no problem, so far. I have read through the numerous articles on MS help web site, but the problem just comes back after I apply the purported cure. If I even try to type in the url of my former home page (www.charter.net), it still freezes. I have flushed the cache and reset all settings. Should I revert back to IE6 on my XP machine? Any other helpful suggestions on how I can remedy this would be appreciated.
