Internet explorer keeps freezing up - George A. Gathecha Google Search

Hi!

Internet Explorer is probably one of the least stable web browsers available. You best solution would be to download and use another.
Firefox is a great option. It also allows you to keep your bookmarks and settings from Internet Explorer.
Download Firefox Free Web Browser
Chrome is also another great option.
Get fast free web browser

Either option will work on your current system. And provide much more functionality, speed, stability, options and more.

Good luck!

If you have a recent PC you probably have not lost IE, but have set up a different browser as the default. To have the Internet shortcut launch IE all the time go the Control Panel / Internet Options / Programs / and select Internet Explorer as the default web browser.

It's normal for internet explore to freeze and that's the reason why I use Google Chrome. Mozilla firefox also does well.

Switch to a different web browser.

1. Try to upgrade your Internet Explorer to the latest version first.
2. Install a Good Antivirus & Scan to delete all infections.
3. Uninstall all toolbars of internet explorer.
4. Disable some unused Addons from Internet Explorer (Tools>Manage Addons).
Update your Adobe Flash Player.

do you use internet explorer or some other browser ? try to reset internet explorer.. or install firefox and then try .. if still the same then revert there might be something else wrong.

If your computer as a whole is freezing, then you have to check for viruses / malware.
But, if it is only your internet that freezes up, then try resetting your Internet Explorer.
I am presuming that you are using Internet Explorer 7 or 8, as your browser.
To reset Internet Explorer (IE) :-
1. Open Internet Explorer .
2. Click Tools, and then click Delete Browsing History.
3. In Delete Browsing History, click Delete All.
4. Click to select the Also delete files and settings stored by add-ons
check box, and then click OK.
5. Switch to the Security tab.
6. Click Reset all zones to default level, and then click OK.
7. On the Advanced tab, click Reset.
8. In the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box, click Reset.
9. When Internet Explorer finishes restoring the default settings, click
Close, and then click OK .
10. Uncheck Enable third-party browser extensions option in the Settings box
11. Close Internet Explorer . The changes take effect the next time that
you open Internet Explorer .
Try to reset IE, as explained above.
Even after resetting IE, if IE still freezes, then there may be some viruses / malware on your computer.

You might try a different browser as a test. Here are a couple I use:

https://www.google.com/chrome/

Hi there.
Don't bother with IE8 at the moment because there are too many bugs with it.
Either go back to IE7 or use mozilla firefox 3.
