Internet and Windows Explorer lock up on me when I click on the BACK or UP Button. This is a very frustrating problem that I have seen in several customers' PCs. I have removed all spyware I could find, cleared out the cache, and replaced the video card. Are there any suggestions?

Opera?

Check your task manager. See if there is anything running that obviously shouldn't be, and if anything is hogging resources. Download the latest virus definitions and run a scan. Also, make sure you have the latest security updates installed.

see, if explorer is in the add/remove program box. If it is not install a earlier version (5.0 or 5.5). If it's their, double click it, a box will appear. 3 choices, here. pick to fix or add componets, or go back to original version. also check window setup to see if explorer is their also, if not checked, check it. this works most of the time.

Hi,
Similar situations with IE5,5.5,6 are possible if not enough memory RAM is available.If no virus etc.. are presentyou can check that up.I've seen that on PCs with 64 or 128 MO,when mouving form dialup modems to cable,ADSL or faster connections.
