shockme17 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 i'm not sure what i did to have caused this but, when I'm in Internet Explorer (with all windows updates in XPSP2) after i enter a web address into the address bar and hit enter - IE closes, and a save dialog comes up, asking me where i want to save the .htm file.for instance, if i enter "google.com" - it acts like it's going to load the page, but right before it does, the window closes asking me where i want to save "google.htm".. this happens with any application that uses IE.I thought that i could update to the IE7p2- but then no address bar appeared after the installation.. So i thought by uninstalling, maybe that would fix the original problem.. but I'm back to square one..It seems to be some kind fo registry issue perhaps?any help would be greatly appreciated..thank you.

hougtimo Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Hmmm...Have your tried a repair installation of IE6? That may work. Or a complete re-install of IE6. If not, you might want to scan for viruses / malware etc...Let us know if these work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberpyr8 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 It sounds like a file association problem to me. Check your .htm and .html extensions and be sure the open items are set to IE correctly. If both versions of IE do it, then it is more than likely related to the open action for those extension types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gouki Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 This does not belong on Networks, Internet and Security. Even if it did belong, you need to read the rules.This thread has been moved to Windows XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyperHacker Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 This happened to me when mshtml.dll was missing; try finding a copy of that somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanqianyu Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I'm not sure whether it will be fixed by using restore operate system which locates at the system tools,but you can try it. And you also try to use the third-party tools to fix your IE problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
