Hi sorry for the delay lost power last night and was unable to get online,

I highly recommend the removal of any p2p progra, utorrent as well as limewire
Its your choice to remove them, go to add remove programs and remove them from there again its your choice


Now make sure neither of them are running when your trying to use IE see if one of them running is causing the problem


lets see if we can find anything out of place

go to Start, Run copy and past or type the following in the window then press ok

regedit /e C:\ie7.txt "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer"

next look in C: for ie7.txt
and post back the contents of from me please
