Hi
If I click on IE, it will start up and almost immediatly freeze. If I right click on IE and click 'Run as Administrator' it works fine. I have to open it this way every time I want to use it. My account is an admin account and my machine is only days old.
Does anybody know why I have to open it this way every time?
Thanks alot for you help!
Homer

Hi
I tried the icon in the lower left corner, and also the one from the Start menu and it still does it. I also tried removing the icon from the desktop and putting a new one there, but it still does it.
Thanks for the idea.....any others?

Hi
My computer came with the Yahoo toolbar and for whatever reason, that's what was making it freeze. I removed that and everything is good.

Thanks for all your help and suggestions!
