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?
