JenF66:
Just got answer from Microsoft. You need to go into your IE options, go to advanced. Under the browsing heading, look for an entry that says "enable third party browser extensions", if this box is checked uncheck it. That solved my problem. They also had me go in to manage my add ons (internet options, programs, manage add-ons. A list of add on pops up and I disabled any that were blank under publisher or (not verfied) even if it had a publisher. Hope this helps.

The problem I am having is that I can not close IE window or any other windows I open when I am using IE. I click on the X (to close) and it goes into "end program" mode and shuts down IE. Everything else in IE works fine except for this problem.
This just starting happening. I have the most up to date service packs, I use spyware, I use McAfee as my security center and I have BBHODemon loaded and everything is coming back clean. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
If that fixed it you have spyware. What You Should Know About Spyware http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/devioussoftware.mspx
CAUTION!!!!! Removing some spyware can damage the Winsock stack and you may not be able to connect to the Internet. Before you try to remove spyware, download a copy of LSP-Fix - a free program to repair damaged Winsock 2 stacks (all Windows versions)
