Yup same here, must be a Yahoo integration issue. I tried DL'g straight from Microsoft but my computer already knows to pull in the Yahoo junk when I re-installed. I've had AT&T / Yahoo techs saying to use the straight from Microsoft IE not theirs, buggy |

Not the same. You don't buy Firefox so nothing is lost if they try it and decide it's not for them. It would be more like somebody *giving* you a Nikon (still bad I know, but at least you could use it as a doorstop or something). |

I'll have you know my Nikon Coolpix 8700 is a great camera... it's a NICE heavy paper weight.

You don't buy IE7 either.

If you're using a PC with less memory and a shallow hard drive IE7 could be bogging your system down.
Just a thought. |
That seems unlikely because my computer's been running very slowly with everything I do lately (due to precisely these problems, which I'm working at solving) but IE7 is working well for me. |

I DL's Firefox and it runs with no problems, fast and no crashes like I was having with IE7. My guess is windows/IE7 is corrupt amd a simple re-install of IE7 didn't help. |

I'll add my name to the "having no problems" list. I downloaded direct from MS using MS Update and it worked flawlessly from the start. Like it much better than IE6.
My machine is 2Ghz AMD Chip, 2 GB RAM so that may help. Are you maybe short on RAM? You should have at least 1 GB even though they say 512 is ok.
