I cannot start my own thread. Web browser problem?

[Hilarious Clinton 452]

Ok. Please everyone bear with me here. I'm very sorry to post this here, but you'll understand why when I'm finished...... I cannot start my own thread. Something is wrong with my web browser or something. I havent been able to create my own posts in quite a long time. Its no problem to add replies to other posts. As I'm doing now. But since I cannot start a post, this is the only way I can ask for help. I looked for a post that has very few replies and some lurkers. Hopefully someone will open this thread and see my question here. How can I fix this. Everytime I try to start a new thread, the page loads almost completely then i get that ugly little rectangle from Internet Explorer saying that ...

Internet Explorer has encountered an internal error and needs to close.

I usually choose to send an error report, sometimes I dont. I have even tried using MSN Explorer, thinking that maybe its just IE. Same thing happens. I dont know what to do. I'm so frustrated. Can anyone please help?? If you cant, perhaps you can copy this entire reply that I'm writing and start a new thread for me? I don't know. I think "Off Topic" is probably the best place for this, but I do appologize for placing this here in someone else's thread. I'm really bummed out because I have so many topics that I wish to begin. i'm tired of simply trying to answer other people's questions. i'd like to ask some now. Help, please. crying.gif

Lucky's comments: try uninstalling IE and download and install IE again. or download firefox.

How totally bizarre. I second the recommendation for Firefox.

I wouldn't recommend an amateur try to uninstall IE. It's pretty tightly integrated with the OS.

Firefox is a good idea, though. Jason sasha, click on this link - http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ - and hit the link that says "Download Firefox - Free".

Now now...let's not get all hysterical and start installing alternate browsers or looking for a late-night software store to buy Linux...

Obviously there's an issue with explorer - I don't have an immediate solution but am sure someone will have one soon...

Have you got the most recent java upgrade?

It's not hysterical to install Firefox! It takes two second and means you don't have to use the bloated ####### that is IE.

I use Firefox at home. Works great!! I wish I could install it here at work.

No, I can't install anything. IT controls things pretty tight at Caterpillar. Shoot, it took me a week before they would make my computer recognize my memory stick.

I would try using firefox...

Have you tried? I generally can't install anything here at work either, but for some reason I was able to install Firefox. It was a pleasant surprise.
