catmag 337 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I've got 2 accounts on my home pc - my own and a guest account. Now I switched the pooter on this morning and couldn't get into IE on my own account. The error message was that there was a Runtime Error (I'll post the whole thing when I go back into it and have a proper look) Now I've clicked into the guest account and it's connecting to IE no problem - hence here I am. Anyone have any ideas? I've not changed any settings and it was opening fine last night. Broadband is working fine - it just won't let me open the internet....

peasepud 59 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Have you got the Google toolbar installed in that profile? I've heard of this problem happening a few times because of a corrputed toolbar. Try uninstalling any additional toolbars you may have one at a time to see if that solves it. The standard response of "use Firefox" will suffice if that dont work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I had it myself once but it disappeared when I reinstalled IE6 ( I think this is all i did but not sure). I was hoping to find a link to a microsoft site to specifically deal with it, but suggest you look as well, I will continue having a look for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasepud 59 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 What is the "google toolbar "......is it something to do with a google account ? 8391[/snapback] Its handy to have although not really essential, it basically provides a quick way to do a Google search, an always present seach box and a few other bits n bobs including a canny pop up blocker. You dont have to register it or have any kind of google or gmail account to use it either. Google Downloads here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
