Is Internet Explorer working at all?

If not, right-click on the Internet Explorer icon on the Desktop and select Start without add-ons. Then go to http://toolbar.google.com/ and download and reinstall the Google Toolbar again. Hope that solves your problem!

In IE tools options, and then Manage Add-ons just simply disable the google toolbar, its an absolute torture device and should never be installed.

If you change routers for instance you cant get connected, its mad however thats the power of google, so my advice is, get rid of it all together.

Thanks Paul. How do i get into IE tools options, i can't see anything to get me into them.
Have tried msn explorer but comes up saying error, so if i manage to disable google how would i acess net?
Think it may cost me to fix. thanks for your help.

Have you tried removing the Google Toolbar? Click on Start>Settings>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs then select Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer then select Remove. Is Internet Explorer working now? If so, download and reinstall the Google Toolbar from the above link . Hope that helps!
