Do you have an anti-virus, and have you done an ad/spyware scan?


RE: ie closes without warning! by _Humphreys on 12-05-2004 at 08:51 PM

If you haven't use one and get rid of the nasty spyware/adware. Two good programs that do this job perfectly are :

Ad-Aware Se edition

and

Spybot - Search & Destroy

Although these say the lop sponsor adware from the MSG Plus! sponsor is spyware and harmful and recommend you to remove these (DON'T uninstall them with this) they are pretty good programs.

I have done scans for virus/adware/spyware sorry for not saying that  in the first tread! :)

any other possible causes

Could be memory problems.
Do you get any errors when they close?
Is it always the same pages? (Some are scripted to close windows)
Any other relevant info?

I would recommend you scan your computer with Spybot, lavasoft, and  Spysweeper. It has to be a virus/trojan infecting this or maybe some kind of popups...

I had this problem before. Not sure how I fixed it tho. :).

Which anti-virus do you use, and have you used the update feature recently?
