IE Just Stops Working

**Mike** · 09-13-2007, 04:11 PM

I haven't used my laptops in a while, probably a month and a half. When I go back to it, IE completely doesn't work. When I type a URL in, nothing happens. It just shows a blank screen where the page should be shown.

However, Firefox is working perfectly. I've checked the firewall options and they seem to be ok, so does anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

Thanks...

What version of IE are you using? Have you tried Windows updates?

It was IE7 and I did what you suggested and downloaded the updates. That didn't seem to work, so I just downloaded IE again and that seems to have solved it.

Strange
