Ya i am having troubles getting into the MSN Gaming zone or even some other regular sites or downloading stuff. Internet explorer is always causing problems with shutting itself down. I cant seem to find an update that will actually fix IE instead of doing some crap to my computer that some windows updates do. If you can help I would greatly appreciate it.
