Internet "Explorer"... Why would you actually try and want to install IE? It's fucking useless.  Get yourself Iron (Chrome but better), Safari or Opera innit. They're all better, quicker and just generally designed to browse, not randomly interpret code and fuck it up. IronOperaSafariEdit: Or Firefox of course, which despite being slower than the ones above, is my browser of choice for it's fantasticalness. |

Go to the start button and click on run (or search and click on it if running vista).
Type the following into the run box:
iexplore.exe
Then click enter. Confirm if IE starts or fails to do so.

I'd download from http://www.microsoft.com/nz/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspxand reinstall. .Old files/folders are from when you customise a vista install. |

I downloaded google chrome and quite liked it.
Until I realised that it was awkward working without a google toolbar, you'd have thought that google would make it possible to use their own product.

Opera is a pretty good browser, and it also has face gestures if you've got a webcam!

Chrome is great, fast as fuck and I never use toolbars so its not a problem for me, Chrome is in the real world more than twice the speed of Firefox and IE and theres no memory leakage in Flash games and apps.
Nice.
