Bugger
Osama's boys have hit my 'pooter again. Internet Explorer don't wanna work no more. Which is fine by me, except that I like to use a freeware browser called Crazy Browser, which is basically IE with tabs. It's a ball-tearer. Fire up the 'pooter (gotta give it a bit of choke now that it's getting cold in the mornings), open Crazy Browser, open the favourites thingy, left click on about twenty sites, go make a cup of coffee, come back and all twenty sites are opened in their own little tab. Except now they aren't. Firefox is still working, but it is too clunky for me. I want IE back. I've run Norton 2006 and Ewido but nothing shows up. I've tried restoring to earlier dates but nothing has been changed since January. When I get home I'm going to see if I can remember how to do a clean install of Windows and see if that does anything. Failing that, I'm going to throw a major league tantrum complete with extreme swearing and thrown objects.

Nuking it from space is probably your best bet.
Ever consider putting in a north american hard drive? they spin in the opposite direction, so as to counteract the coriolis force there.
(sharp inhale) take a hit and pass it on, doood.
apparently the latest version of internet exploder has tabbed browsing. the beta version is at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/default.mspx
i haven't tried it. your mileage may vary.
Mmmmmmmmmm. Way to techy for me, but I wanted to leave my mark anyway. So to speak.
og,
then I'd have tp type on the wrong side of the keyboard.
Rat,
I downloaded it and installed it. It's pretty looking, but it won't go either.
Cant,
sorry I missed you again last night.
I've held off on both the clean install and the tantie. I've asked this mob for help. They've cured my leprosy before, we'll see how they go this time.
There has been significant issues with the US backbone that services the iiNet ISP's here in Australia. It is allegedly being fixed, but major access issues are being reported all over.
