Problem with Internet Explorer

**shedite** · 28/01/2005, 2:27 PM

Was messin around with my computer today (Downloaded an updated version of iTunes and stuff) and suddenly internet explorer has just disappeared. The big E has become a globe and when I double click to connect I just get the internet options box. Can I download IE again or what?

Tabbed browsing, much better security, a bit faster, better supported, not made by Microsoft. Far superior browser.

Firefox sure is the business. Wipes the floor with IE. Bill Gates can shove his little E where he likes it.

I downloaded Firefox last week. It imported all my favourites and cookies from IE, but this morning they were all wiped! Anyone any ideas what happened, or is there anything I can do?
