Guest ATDG Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Since yesterday every time I tried to open Internet Explorer it would say there was an error and ask me if I wanted to send an error report. It's getting frustrating I can't surf the web. I'm still connected to the internet ..AIM works fine, I just can't surf the web. My friend sent me Firefox and it's been tempermental...everytime I search on Google I can't click on a legitimate website. It'll say it's wikipedia or amazon or dillards, etc. but it'll bring me to one of those annoying spam shopping websites. My virus scan/ad-aware scan didn't show anything. I know it's not 100% but I also tried doing both scans in safe mode. Any explinations? What should I do? Quote
