I'm certain no one has ever encountered this but if there are any solutions (besides entering the registry) please please advise. I was traveling and stopped by a place to use wi-fi. The cost was $4.95 for 24 hrs, payable by credit card. From then on, whenever I open IE I get the error reporting template "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close...) in front of any program open, Word, IE, etc. If I click Send Error Report or click Don't Send, or X it out I immediately lose my IE connection. In other words, I have to let the thing remain on my screen to access IE. It doesn't show up using Control Alt Delete, but it's controlling my IE. I am horrified I'll be stuck with this the life of my computer. Also, when I can't get a connection but try to open IE it shows up. If I tell it to report the error, it goes thru the motions, but can't actually be reporting with no connection. I ran paid versions Registry Mechanic, and AdAware. Didn't help. Hope you can! And thanks, Terri
