Ok guys a “Runtime Error?” How do I get rid of it? 8 out of 10 times I click on a link in an email my Windows Internet Explorer shuts down.
I have a spywere and an virus do-hickey and ran them for hours one day to discover I was infected real bad. But now that I’m clean and vigilant I have this problem with my explorer.
Yes I know I should use a Mac. I do. It’s just not hooked up to my cable line and I can’t fight the enemies of Rome on it.

I must tell you in advance that I use windows only in the public library.
So my advice is to install Linux. Maybe Ubuntu Linux or Suse that are two of the most user friendly OS.
But if after this advice you still prefer windows or mac ($$$$), you should change the browser, try Firefox.

firefox and safari on my mac and I.E. on windows on my mac
Firefox is the best browser I've come across. It hardly ever crashes.
How did the link work for you?( in my first post )

I use Firefox exclusively on all of my computers. I've never had a problem with it since I changed to it on the suggestion of a friend who also does computer repair for a living. I only ever use Internet Explorer now when I absolutely have to, which isn't often. I found there are only a few game sites that my wife goes to that won't run through Firefox. Everything else works well and never seems to crash through Firefox.

I just happened across this list of PC tips. It is pretty comprehensive. The guy who wrote it is a professor ( ie nothing to do with McAfee software). The only thing I would do differently is use VLC as my media player.

Addons are little programs you can add to your browser similar to flash or the search bars you might have had with iE, the most popular one is adblocker which does what it says on the tin.
