And, yes, I have Windows XP- which evidently cannot be used with the new Internet Explorer. Is there anything I can do to make my computer usable again???

But, there is a new wind blowing tonight. I hate computer programs that try to take control of my computer. Even more, I hate companies who shove their products down my throat. I put IE7 on my computer without realizing I was getting the dubious "bonus" of the yahoo toolbar. I happen to like my Google toolbar, and the yahoo toolbar just clutters up my browser. But, what really pisses me off is, yahoo does not give you a way to disable, or even hide, the yahoo toolbar. Yes, I have read that you click on the "Edit" icon then select the "Remove Yahoo Toolbar" (or some such steps). After figuring out how to access the "Edit" icon (by using Tools/Toolbars/Customize" then selecting "Edit" then clicking on "Add" then clickingon "Close") I see that I must be on some random web page to get the "Edit" icon to move froma greyed out icon to an enabled icon. when I click on the "Edit" icon after it is enabled, I get four options, each some edit option such as ucing Excel, or Word. There is not a "Remove Toolbar" or any other such choice. The instruciton for removing the toolbar that I give here is from Yahoo's own web site. What really pisses me off more than anything, is a bullying company shoving thier product down my thorat then lying to me about how to remove their piece of crap. So, to solve this problem, I am going to ermove IE7 and make Google my home page inste3ad of yahoo. Maybe all of you computer illiterate people find some measure of joy in using this yahoo productr, bout for me, it is an unwated intrusion into my personal space.

It started about 2 days and hasn't stopped since. It's been buggy for weeks, but now it has completely messed up - X's where the icons should be, I'll manage to get explorer opened without crashing and the toolbar will be in a different place, and of course, 9 out of 10 times it crashes every time I open IE6. Is there not a fix for this yet? Don't say "uninstall" because I have about 4.7 million bookmarks (slight exaggeration). The Yahoo toolbar is constantly crashing my IE6.
