maybe this should be in internetworld. i tried on another forum and it closes there too.

it's either VB or my internet explorer, i think :unsure:

All fine here, Firefox 1.0, Chromo Skinage

try copy and pasting it from Notepad into IE and see if that works and do the usuall Spyware, Ad-aware and virus scans.

What skin where you using? Default? anyone else having problems with default and IE? Also what skin was the other forum using? VB default or an added skin?

right. maybe i should get some anti-virus scan thing. you dont think it could be an adblock thing picking up on the character?

anyone know how to uninstall that thing what used to get installed with k-lite?

i just did a google but i cant type a search fast enough to get any results, it just closes.

maybe its like one of those spyware things that hi-jacks IE so you cant get to the ad-aware site
