Web Browser

Not able to add games to my gameflyQ, I was told to 1. click tools 2. drop down to internet options. 3. in privacy tab under security settings select medium(only medium). 4. Restart browser by quiting IE and then re-open it. What is IE, How do I re-start the browser?

IE is Internet Explorer and If you really want to close it click ALT CTRL Delete then clicks processes then click the one that say Iexplore.exe then click End Process then it should close with a fresh new start!!!!

You probably installed it when you installed messenger or something. If you do not follow directions, this is what happens. Get rid of it by going into your control panel, go to add/remove programs, and find it and remove it.

I have to right click and then click on it.
Yeah!!! I found it. Thank you!!!

It should always be by the stop button.

On Macs, there is a feature where you can clean out the cache of a selected/current browser. However, there is no visible feature like this in IE 6 BUT it is visible in Safari for Windows. Just in case you don’t know, CACHE stores all of your email addresses, user names, passwords, and other secure info on your web browser and your hard drive. This has to be systematically cleaned up once in a while to keep your system in shape and clear up some of your HD space. If it isn’t, it’s basically bait for hackers and phishers that will try to take over your system.

With that in mind, how do you clean out the web browser cache in IE 6? Thanks, your answers are very much appreciated!

in ie,
go to tools->internet options->
wehre it says temporary files
click on delete cookies and delete files…

if you want to be really really thorough…
after the first two steps…
click on settings..
view files
select all
delete….

In IE browser i found cookie
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

In Firefox where can I found that?

Who will be right answer i will give you maximum star.

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application data\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles\
encrypted userid.txt

firefox browser? it fills in info on firefox browser but not on ie browser, why?

U need to enable Autofill on your IE browser

- GO to Tools
- Click Internet Options
- Click on Content Tab
- Click on Autocomplete button
- Put a checkmark on all boxes under ‘Use Autocomple for’
- Then Click OK

Autocomplete should work now on your IE browser

Usually, I get a medium-sized window that takes up most of the screen. But sometimes, it is very small (smaller than I would ever choose to make it).

I want it to always be full screen when I open it. I know it’s just one extra click to maximize it, but it’s still annoying. Any suggestions?

Right click on task bar down by clock ,on popup click cascade windows..Take mouse pointer along edge of window pull it to full screen size.

When I open my IE browser, the entire menu bar disappears up. I have to move my mouse to the top of the screen for it to appear again. The blue toolbar on the bottom is gone also. The only way it appears is if I minimize IE. This started yesterday and I have no clue why. What do I need to do to fix this?

IE is in full-screen mode. Press F11

This started happening right after I installed a new HP printer. my computer runs on vista.

When you click on the x to close the window, do you get a message that asks if you want to close all tabs? If so and you click yes, it closes everything. You may have more than one tab open and the x closes them all. If that is the case, close each tab individually to keep your browser up. Good luck.

Recently, on only some websites, my browser does not display any graphic pictures. For example, at one such site, I get an entire blank screen. That particular site is a commercial site for a major brand of food, so it is a legitmate site.
I do update my Microsoft Browser software regularly, but do I need some other type of upgrade for this? What upgrade do I look for to solve this? Thanks in advance.

are you using the IE 7? I’ve heard that it has problems with loading pages. if so, then try going back to IE 6. here’s a program that can prevent microsoft from automatically installing the new one (it will start including the new browser in the microsoft updates, starting in the next few weeks).
