Adding To Restricted Sites In IE Options
Feb 6, 2009Vista home premium, SP1. Internet explorer 7.0.6001.18000 attempting to add an address to the Restricted sites in the security tab of Internet Options. specific site is search.live.com, but applies to any other as well. response is that Sites added to this zone must use the https// prefix. This assures a secure connection. That response is expected when adding to the Trusted sites, not the
restricted sites. I have in the past added sites to the Restricted sites, currently there are three sites in the list
Internet Explorer 8 Working With Some Sites
Jun 14, 2009My computer automatically downloaded Internet Explorer 8 last week. So far I am not impressed! I have found that it does not load some sites (eg. Facebook and sometimes Google), or takes an age for it to load them up. Sometimes when IE8 is loading up iteslf, it goes to a page saying 'Internet Connection Problem" or something in the top left corner. I wonder if there is a new download patch (is that what it is called?!) or something that can resolve this problem, or some way that I can revert to Internet Explorer 7?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWindows Explorer: Folder Options 'Restricted'
Mar 6, 2009I have a computer where I can't access the Explorer Folder Options (specifically the Folder and Search options under the Organize submenu.)
When I select it, I get an error message labeled 'Restricted.' The text reads "This option has been cancelled due to restrictions See your administrator."
However, I should point out that I DO still have admin priveleges. I can access any other menu or option. I can edit the registry, change the internet explorer options, use the group policy editor, whatever.
Most of the potential solutions I found relate to either a program changing the restrictions for Explorer folder options; but the associated registry entries where those restrictions would normally be 'keyed' are not present.
Editing the group policy (which by default is 'not configured') to 'disable' the 'Remove Folder Options' policy has no effect whatsoever. Editing the registry, adding keys, and then disabling them, also has no effect.
Using NOD32 and scanning in safe mode results in no infection found, and I'm not seeing the telltale signs of an infection (such as limiting my admin priveleges in other areas, like registry editing or using the control panel applets.)
Hijack this does not provide any clues; it all looks clean (with the exception of some leftover services from TuneUp Utilities, which I ended up cleaning out manually.) Cleaning this did not change the problem at hand.
Using a restore point from several days ago did not fix the problem. I could go further back but I don't even know when this problem began. Maybe as long as a month ago.
Disconnect From Internet Sites
May 15, 2009For several weeks I have been trying to solve a problem with being disconnected from internet sites. Tons of troubleshooting have not been successful. The problem is this: I can go to any website and open one or two windows but when I try to open a third (or sometimes fourth) window (especially if it is a 'heavy' activity site, e.g. Pogo Games or some site that requires multiple windows) I suddenly get disconnected. It is as if I am overloading something (I have 3 GB of RAM) or causing something or other to overload. This happens whether I am using my AOL browser, Internet Explorer 8.0, or Firefox...
so it is NOT the browser. With AOL when I get disconnected the browser will immediately try to restart and will be successful except if I have not 'removed' the offending 3rd or 4th window it will soon disconnect again. I try to quickly X out the 'extra' window but if I am not quick enough it will repeat that cycle again and again up to 6 or 7 times until I can 'catch' and X out the extra window. I have no idea where to start troubleshooting but it is very exasperating. I have a Dell Inspiron 530s, 200GB HD, 3GB RAM, Vista Home Premium OS, 32-bit. (Question: would upgrading to 64bit make a possible difference?)
My computer is loaded with applications, large graphic files, etc. etc. It may be that I need to simplify. Also have more than one anti-virus and/or anti-malware application. Could that be the problem? I need HELP Please.....If reinstalling the OS would be the solution I would do that as a last resort because I have so much personal data that has to be backed up as well as dozens and dozens of applications that would have to be reinstalled. But if I can't find another solution to this problem first I can go that route (again). P.S. I also tried a 'Repair Install' and got the message : Nothing to repair'...although that only took a few seconds so I doubted that a scan was done.
Internet Connection Can't Connect To Sites
Apr 3, 2009I'm having trouble with my internet connection on my Sony Vaio laptop. I've had this laptop for over a year now and I've been connected to the internet wirelessly through a router without any problems until last night...All of a sudden IE wouldn't connect to any sites but firefox and my messenger still worked. Then about an hour later my firefox stopped working so i decided to restart my laptop. Before it shut down to restart I got a Blue Screen and then it restarted. Now it's saying im connected to the network but Local Only and I can't connect to any sites. I'm currently on another PC in the house and the Internet works fine. Also I tried plugging an ethernet cord in the laptop and it still doesn't work.

May 10, 2009I have been having a problem when I click on an icon on the desk top that takes me to a site on the internet. As soon as I select the icon, I get an error message with the sites address followed by "application not found". Verizon DSL is my service provider. Desk top short cuts that go to other application programs (i.e. Word etc.) work OK. Outlook works okay and I can still get to the web sites using Internet Explorer.
I recently downloaded Google Chrome but deleted it when it prevented me from downloading Adobe Flash. I tried to restore to a previous time, however, the restore operation failed.
Explorer.exe Not Opening Automatically
Apr 27, 2010Today i turned on the laptop, after entering the password and logging in. i couldn't see the start menu, task bar or anything at all. after opening the TASK MANAGER, i realized the explorer.exe is not open, so i launched it manually and then everything was fine. But now i always have to open it manually. After doing some research, i went to regedit, then to some stuff, until i came to winlogon, then shell and i found this " Explorer.exe "C:UsersThe PhonixAppDataRoaminglsass.exe" instead of just "Explorer.exe". I erased it but it comes back again, i did a full virus check using windows defender and nod32 anti-virus.

View 4 Replies View RelatedInternet Explorer 8 In Vista Causes Windows Explorer
Mar 21, 2009I wasn't quite sure if IE8 was the culprit, but it became apparent once I removed it. Internet Explorer 8 interferes with the functionality in Windows Explorer for Vista. Say for example: With IE8 installed, open up "Computer". Close it, then open it again. It should be instantaneous. But its not. A window will take over to 10 seconds to show its initial contents. Once its open though, its very fast because the instance is already running. But once it closes it will take another 10 seconds to open again. Internet Explorer 8 itself opens up very slowly even after the first opening. Can any Vista users verify this?
1. Install IE8
2. Go: Start > click Computer
3. Close that Window.
4. Repeat step 2.
Is it an instantaneous opening or does the window take more than 5 seconds to populate? Repeat those steps with opening Internet Explorer. Is it the same? If so, welcome to the club. Does Microsoft have any way to report this bug to developers?

Apr 3, 2010Using Vista Ultimate 64:
A month ago I started to notice that when I went to bed at night on a Monday night the computer was fine and connected to the internet. When I got up Tuesday morning the first thing that I noticed was that the CPU usage, via the CPU usage gadget on the desktop, 4 core, was running up and down between 27% and 59%. While running it would allow me to do vitually nothing. The next thing I noticed was that I was disconnected from the WAN & Lan and it would not allow me to neither connect or troubleshoot. In order to get my computer back I had to do a restart.Two weeks ago the problem changed from a Tuesday morning to Saturday morning but the identical scenerio.What I was able to identify is that the problem is from, via services, "Svchostexe", of which there are 15 of them running. The indivdual services showed: WSCSVC; IMHosts; Event Log; DHCP; AudioSRV:
In order to retake control I had to do the restart but this time when it restarted it showed that I was connected to an unidentified network. Reset the modem/router and all was fine.This Saturday morning, same thing with the with the cpu usage meter and internet connection dropped. Under Services it was showing AVgaurd.exe 32 - Antivirus on Access Service and the svchost.exe - System host Process for windows service; when I open subprocess services it is showing 11 of them: wudfsvc; wdi system host; Ursms; PCA Svc; Netman; Irman; IPBus Enum; hidserv; EMDmgmt; AudioEndPointBuilder; Thes are showing "Local System Network Restricted" next to them all the while when "Running" , evan after a restart these are still running so I am presuming that they are legit.I admit by some of the names of the services it looks like a rootkit or zombie programs but everything that I throw at the C drive comes back negative including Eset and Fsecure. I have no services scheduled to run at this time of the day. This time a restart brought everything up fine.Are these legit MS OS programs; Don't know that is why I am asking as to which direction to go.While my computer is showing disconnect from the network the router light is still blinking indicating activaty. Daughters computer running XP and running thru the same router/modem is fine.

Internet Explorer (64 Bit)
Nov 11, 2009A freind of mine is having a few problems with her laptop..
She has a link in the start menu that says (internet explorer 64 bit)
This is what she clicks to go on the internet, Now when she visits or clicks on links, she will sometimes get a message that she needs to install flash player.
She already has the latest flash player installed, but apparently this does not work on this "internet explorer 64 bit"
I diden't even know there was a 64 bit internet explorer.
And it goes on to say something like flash player is for 32 bit browsers, for flash player to work on 64 bit browsers search online for help, or it directs you to microsoft help and support.
I don't really like to go messing around on someone elses laptop
so i thought i would just ask to see if there is one thing i could follow to fix this problem..
Internet Explorer (7) Won't Run
Mar 8, 2010Internet explorer (7) won't run. I found that the IEXPLORER.exe is not in the directory. I have tried to install IE8 but it fails on configuring every time. Same happens when I try to install the cummulative IE7 updates (she's not good at installing updates). Everytime I try any kind of install or update concerned with IE it fails at the configuration phase. Other problems are that she can no longer use windows messenger. This connects but terminates in failure almost instantly.
I've ran a Norton Security scan which has found 144 tracking cookies but nothing more. The fix now button produces fail to lauch link which may well have something to do with the IE problem. Google Chrome is installed and works OK. I don't know what the last good restart point is. I've tried going into the repair feature on windows live essentials through the programs and features in the control panel but I just get a fatal error 0x8007007. Can't even look at internet options in control panel. That won't open either.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMS Internet Explorer Toasted!
Mar 27, 2008I noticed is that MS Internet Explorer, when started, returns and error pinpointing Google Toolbar then shuts down. What's the best way to repair or re-install MSIE? My understanding is that MSIE is integral to Vista so this could be at the root of some other problems, such as that the window that is supposed to open for "Default Applications" immediately shuts. Also, updates sit there waiting on the tool bar in spite of the fact that it is set to update automatically. When I click on the icon a window opens and shuts immediately.
I did a boot time scan with Avast! which generated an list of obscurely named files which it said were damaged and unreadable. They are all located folders which I guess would normally be hidden. I am wondering if these have anything to do with the registry and are therefore slowing things down as Vista struggles to rebuild. Another clue in that direction is that Ad-Aware hangs when trying to do the deep registry scan. If I skip that part of the scan it hangs during the file scan one or another obscurely named file. I have not yet correlated one these with the list generated by Avast!, maybe it will not be necessary if I can find another way to address these problems.
Internet Explorer Disappears
Oct 11, 2009A friend has a new Toshiba laptop with Windows Vista. When she double clicks on the Internet Explorer icon (on the desktop), IE will open up for 2 seconds then disappear. In it's place are three small identical windows, with the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page", and also a small google search line. I'm not familiar with Vista or the IE that comes with it. So this may be normal behavior, but in my world (Win2000 and XP) you can always open up Internet Explorer even if it doesn't connect to the web. Can someone tell me if there is a way to open up IE so that it doesn't disappear as I described.
