Quit using IE and switch to Opera, Mozilla, Firefox or any browser but IE.

reset your homepage in internet options. he didn't ask for alternative browsers. anything thread that's ie related, someone has to say 'use firefox instead'. that doesn't fix the problem. firefox is not > * browsers and neither is ie.
