Too many people have had various problems with IE 7 so I'm afraid to give you a specific answer. What's worked for one person hasn't worked for another. I would suggest contacting Yahoo and have them walk you through the uninstall process. This link might get you started. Scroll to the bottom and you should see a choice for email, online chat or phone:

http://help.sbcglobal.net/?ys_state=sg%26amp;y...

If they complain or refuse to help because you don't have Yahoo through SBC or AT%26amp;T, they can probably give you a referral telephone number. Or you could try one of these:

AT%26amp;T Yahoo: 1-877-722-3755

AT%26amp;T Tech Support: 1-866-583-2494

Yahoo Customer Service: 1-866-562-7219

As apostle1938 said, MS doesn't seem to care about the problems IE 7 is causing, and Yahoo isn't helping much either by trying to get people to switch. When IE 6 came out of beta testing and was released to the public, it took about half a year for most of the bugs to be fixed. You'd think MS and Yahoo would have learned from that.

By the way, if you do get IE 7 uninstalled, be warned that MS is planning on making IE 7 an automatic Windows Update. So if you don't want IE 7 automatically reinstalled, you might want to change your preferences on how Updates are handled. Click start %26gt; control panel %26gt; security center. Click on "automatic updates" and you can change how the updates are handled. I'd suggest using "notify me but don't automatically download or install".

You could also install a free blocker that was recommended about a week ago by Yahoo's own tech guy!! How's that for irony. Yahoo tries to get everyone to switch but their own tech guru offers a way to block the automatic download. Go figure!

I DONT HAVE ANY ANSWER.

I have read numerous articles of problems with explorer 7 and you are not the only one. I dont know if you can remove it and install your previous editon or not.'

I almost downloaded it until I read these articles.

Bill gates needs to attend to cleaning up his crap here instead of worrying over africa.

I have enough e-mail problems without adding to it with the ie 7 problems. you have posted a good question hope others will respond msn certainly doesnt care.
Simple fix to this, use Firefox

Does firefox look better than IE?

i don't know if it's just me

or if there is a reason why

i've tried to tweek IE

but without doing anything, with firefox all the sites just look very sharp and clear...or normal

because with IE

sometimes little icons are not even there

my school for some reason the whole name is a big black smudge

a lot of things look blocky

it just looks terrible

a video will play the same i think

but the stuff on the web page just looks really out of focus with IE

i don't even think i'm too concerned with trying to fix it

but would there be a reason

and if there is a fix

why is it that it needs to be adjusted while firefox just looks right anyway

love firefox

haha

thanks

Does firefox look better than IE?opera browser

Hmmm I use both...

certain sites are better equipped for one or the other...

it all depends on the site I guess...

:]

Does firefox look better than IE?microsoft windows internet explorer

A lot of web designers don't test for compatability between browsers which causes the problems you're talking about. It's kind of weird that the site would look ok in Firefox and not IE. Usually it's the other way around. Reputable web designers (like http://www.directhitsolutions.com ) do a lot of inter-browser testing to ensure a site will look the same (or close) between browsers.

Ie not working need help?

Internet Explorer may not be working for a variety of reasons. There may be malware or a missing file.

If you need to reinstall Internet Explorer 7, and are using Windows XP, go to Control Panel %26gt; Add or Remove Programs %26gt; check "Show Updates" (at the top), and scroll down to Internet Explorer 7. Select it and click Uninstall. After this procedure, restart your computer, and re-download Internet Explorer here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/product...

If you still have Internet Explorer 6, downloading Internet Explorer 7 will also solve your problems. Follow the same link provided.

If you are using Windows Vista, try launching Internet Explorer with no Add-ons. (by typing "Internet Explorer No Add-ons" in the Start menu search bar) This will allow you to trouble-shoot the add-ons (toolbars, plug-ins, etc) that may be causing you problems. after finding your source/s of the problem, remove the plug-ins/add-ons via the Control Panel %26gt; Uninstall Programs.

I hope this helps to relieve some of your frustration with Internet Explorer.

IE but not Mozilla?

My web page works great when logged into IE but when I'm on Mozilla it does not display correctly. Please...How do I fix this? :-/

IE but not Mozilla?windows defender

My web page works great when logged into IE but when I'm on Mozilla it does not display correctly. Please...How do I fix this?

ans: oh! dear friend,

a lot of customers ask me this question for this i will tell u answer in 2 phases 1st why and 2nd how to resolve it,,,

1st: why its coming:

ans: this is only reason you are not good with tables and formation of tables

for e.g. every %26lt;tr%26gt;%26lt;/tr%26gt; must have only %26lt;td%26gt;%26lt;/td%26gt; inside it always for a best presentation while there some can miss in ur codings or misplaced.

for e.g. if u want to put any data u must always try to put it in between any %26lt;td%26gt;%26lt;/td%26gt; not like anywhere !

i recommand frontpage 2003 sw to be used for this purpose like i do use.

apart from this basically you shall try to learn a little more about tables

apart from this i will tell u final thing as follows:

"always start your site from %26lt;table%26gt; and end your site with %26lt;/table%26gt;%26lt;/body%26gt;%26lt;/html%26gt; mean to say start and end always all your website datas in tables from start to end."

hope i tried best to answer u ...

regards!

IE but not Mozilla?windows updates internet explorer

Sorry, you can't . It's a render engine problem: the site was specifically designed for IE.
There are generally a number of ways, but most importantly: check your preferences in Mozilla. Is JavaScript enabled? This tends to be a major factor in terms of Mozilla not displaying web pages properly.

Posting the URL to your site would be helpful in the long run though. That way, contributors could view your source, and work to solve your problem quicker (:

Edit:

Have you done a browser reset recently? (i.e cleared your cache %26amp; cookies, and hard refreshed the page)

IE > Internet Options > Home page setting?

Hi why is that my IE %26gt; Options home page disable? I can set my home page settings. How can i activate it?

IE %26gt; Internet Options %26gt; Home page setting?microsoft access

The only reasons I can think of is that either your browser's home page has been hijacked by a virus or there is a corporate policy that has disabled the option to change your home page.

If you're using IE 7, on the menu bar somewhere on your right, there's a "Home" button with a picture of a house on it. And right next to it there's a drop down arrow. Click on it after you've navigated to the page you want set as your homepage.

One Love !!!

IE %26gt; Internet Options %26gt; Home page setting?windows mobile 6 internet explorer

after you type it in, click apply then ok. close and reopen. if it doesnt work then sry i dunno.

Is this on a PC at work or at home?

If its at work it may be that the company you work for has implemented a system policy in Windows to make sure that you always go their preferred home page, this policy will also have disabled the function to change it.

If this is the case you can't change it unless you are a system administrator.
You browser may have been hijacked. What you can try is a program called "cwshredder" to solve the problem: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/progr... Scroll down the page a bit and download the program.

Failing that, you can set the homepage with a Windows utility called gpedit.

This was posted on a site which I have put below:

Go to Start Menu.

Choose "Run"

Type "gpedit.msc"

A menu will come up that looks like a file browser. On the left look for the item "User Configuration"

Click the plus next to it, to expand it out.

You will see some folders drop down.

Look for "Windows Settings"

Expand it out.

Look for "Internet Explorer Maintenance"

Expand it out.

Some folders will drop down.

Select the one that says "URLS"

Some items will appear in the right hand side pane.

Double click the one that says "Important URLS"

There will be 3 sets.

The first set is your home page setting. Check the box "Customize Home Page URL"

Enter the page that you want in the blank.

Click "ok"

exit the program.

***************

Now you have set the home page in the most secure way possible.

The next step explains how to prevent any changes being made to that start page. Either by some sort of Spyware or by a User.

In order to reverse this process, you will have to go through these steps listed below again to change the home URL in the future.

Go to Start Menu.

Choose "Run"

Type "gpedit.msc"

When it comes up this time, look for "Administrative Templates."

Expand it out.

Look for "Windows Components"

Expand it out.

Look for "Internet Explorer"

Click on this folder once.

Some items will appear in the right hand side pane.

Look for the one called: "Disable Changing Home Page Settings"

When the menu comes up select the option "Enable" and click "Ok."

Close the program.

**********************

You must do the above steps in order for this to work properly.

Your default home page is now set in stone. If you go into Internet Explorer and check your internet options, you will notice the area to change your home page is now unavailable.

In order to change it, again you must go through the previous step and select "disable" on "Disable Changing Home Page Settings"

***********

This is the lock-down administrative way of stopping that setting from being changed.
There is a setting to lock your home page to prevent hijackers from changing it. I'm on Firefox so I don't know what the IE equivalent is. It should be under options. Just make sure to reset it after the change, for security reasons.

Download Firefox (www.firefox.org) and you'll be all set. Keep IE only for Windows websites.
check your ram to see if you have enough. If you don't that will cause it to shut down
Hello ,

Familiarize yourself with all "Add-ons" this may help the crashes as you are experiencing . You can always open a second browser for yout important searches and work and use 1 browser for surfing . Also , when opening a website , give the website to fully load before open other websites . You will see the website icon in full in the browser tab to . Look up the meanings of each Add-on and decide which to disable . When the time comes and a website pops up an alert needing the Add-on , you can enable that Add-on then . I disable all Yahoo Add-ons as a recommended security barrier . I use a lot of Yahoo features and E-mail and never had tpo enable Yahoo Add-ons yet even though Yahoo pops up an alert saying that I need to enable it . I assume you are using IE7 . To view Add-ons %26gt; Navigate %26gt; On the browser %26gt; Button %26gt; click : Tools/Manage Add-ons/Enable or disable Add-ons/Where it reads "Show" is a catagory of the way Add ons are handled . View each one (by clicking the drop down arrow . In the box below are the Add-ons of that catagory . Click on the Add-on (underlined) , this will activate option to enable -or- disable its function by tic or click Enable or disable in the area below marked "Settings" .
