Can you launch it if you double-click
iexplore.exe in the C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer folder? If so, the shortcuts from All Programs and your desktop icon are corrupted. If not, you will probably need to reinstall IE (see
this).
If most of the programs does'nt load then you do'nt just have an IE problem.
What you can do is click on Start goto Run and type
sfc /scannow
Note: The Windows XP CD should be inside your CD Drive.
If this did'nt work, goto the Boot Device Menu by tapping F12 ( for other systems like I2650 taps ESC ) then select CD/DVD/CDRW or CDROM and press Enter. Then tap any key especially when you see the message on the screen that says press any key to boot to CD and Windows Setup will start. When you see the Welcome to Setup Screen, Press R to goto Recovery Console. If you are asked to select an Operating System just press 1 and you will be asked for an Administrator Password if you put in one the first time you got the system. If not, what you should see is a command prompt. Type
chkdsk /p and press enter. Then type exit once it is done. Hope this can help you.
Better scan your system for spyware first before you do this =Þ
IE will load from my spyware program. but it will not hold the home page. It has just question marks and reverts back to the question mark on it's own. I ran three different spy ware removers. A Tech from Dell has suggested that I need to insert Windows cd and start computer prssing the f 12 key
