Internet Explorer 7 on Vista does not open thru quickstart icons, startup menu or other icons. However, if I open the Task Manager and disable ieuser.exe, the browser opens with limited functionality. Some upgrades were installed earlier today, but the problem did not appear immediately following the upgrades. I have opened IE many times during the day, but the problem only started recently.
Hi, Microsoft Security Essentials installed? Have you rebooted since installing the 'updates'? (Microsoft updates or Adobe or Google or Firefox updates?)<mvpwink/> Try restarting your computer to see if the issue persists after a reboot. On Vista you can review your update and software installation history from Start>Search - Reliability and Performance Monitor If no luck please post back with the name of your Anti-Virus program(s) and whether they are trial versions or not.
