I'm having trouble with my internet explorer. It keeps shutting down, everytime I open it it shuts down within 20 seconds. I've deleted all of my cookies, cleaned my temp internet files, and it still is not working any suggestions? Also my outlook has stopped responding. It tells me that there is a problem with my pst file I've tried to detect and repair it a few times and nothing. Thanks for your help.

It could be about the archived(pst) files in your Outlook program. There is the possibility that they have gotten too large. Might want to check This site out. hth shep

Have you tried repairing IE? Scanned for spyware/trojans/viruses?

Kim Kamando says to download and as you download disconnect your commputer from the net becasue the file is small so you will get it all and save it on a disk.
I would do a virus scan or get the download fix from another computer to install on yours.
