[Help] How to close the IExplorer by Basilis on 03-11-2008 at 05:11 PM
I need to install Photoshop CS3 and it requires that I close both Firefox and explorer. I close explorer and it still says that is is open. I tried uninstalling it but it continues to say that it is open. And also, even after I uninstalled it, I could still open an explorer window ( it was opening an error message but it could open which I consider strange since I uninstalled it) Anyone know how to solve this issue?

I opened the task manager and closed them but they open again immediately. Anyone installed Photoshop CS3 and had the same problem? What did you do?

I searched in Google but I only found some other questions in other forums that just included the words " How to Close Internet Explorer". This shit drives me mad.
bigb88: What did you do to install it?

Basilis u can try what i said and also u might have a lil spyware prob and its kickin ie back up so might wanna look into that
spybot/ad-aware - both good and pretty sure they still have a ad-aware that is free but ya spybot is not bad

I don't have a spybot or spyware etc. I scanned my computer last night. But do all the people who install Photoshop CS3 have to do all this process?
