On my HP Desktop, I use XP home and IE 7. I just took the IE 7 upgrade...

When I try to close a window, it then shows an IE has to close error and i can report the error or not, I quit reporting since nothing gets done obviously lol

Next issue I have is when trying to download ANYTHING (exp. web templates, spyware seek and destroy, etc) it closes my windows and closed the download prompt...and therefore I can not download anything...

Any help would be loved!!! Thanks.

Try running internet explorer from start > run with this command:

c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe -extoff

If you run IE that way (you'll get a warning that extensions are off when you run it that way to let you know you ran the command successfully), does the problem set still occur?

It gave an error prompt, windows can not find 'c:\program'

I was finally able to download spybot search & destroy and removed A LOT of stuff and changed a registry after a long scan, but does my issues seem to be a possible spy/ad/malware problem?

I also lastning discovered that "Dropper.Small" virus was on my PC, AVG would not allow me to remove it but I was able to stick it in the virus vault

Sorry - forgot to mention, you should put the path in quotes:

"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -extoff

It appears that after I ran the spybot s&d, everything is okay...so maybe thats all it was.

Hopefully.

But thank you for the assistance :)
