Hello all,
I have an IT dept. created issue. I'm using a netbook (a laptop wanna be), with Windows 7 starter installed.
If I try and use either Google or Yahoo I get an error “Internet Explorer Has Stopped Working” etc.
You all probably know the rest of the verbage.
Any ideas on a fix short of reloading the OS?
Thanks!
Since this is an IT created issue, are you sure they are not blocking access to Google or Yahoo? Using another browser would be an easy check? But you can also try to ping Google and Yahoo?

Hold down
Windows Key+R and in RUN type CMD and ENTER. Type
ping google.com and ENTER.

Do you see something like this?

Or does it fail? Try also
ping Yahoo.com?
