Logging on to IE

I have managed to get Windows seven up and running and generally I am impressed. One problem is it can take me seven or eight tries to get IE to start. It won't autostart, saying there is a problem with the programme. Any ideas?

Can you give more detail as to the what the problem is

I start up Windows 7, Outlook autoboots, but IE8 won't, after clicking on it seven or eight times it loads, after that everything is fine. I would rather it would autoboot as I can get straight to work after a cup of coffee.

What steps have you taken to get IE8 to load at startup - Have you added a shortcut to "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" in the startup folder

Yes and it still doesn't start. I have just tried getting the file out and putting it in startup and nothing. I think the only thing I can do is remove IE altogether and start again.

Before you go to extremes try restoring IE8 to default settings under
Internet options>Advanced>
"Restore Advanced Settings" or "Default"

Ive had glitches that wouldnt go away until I did so

No luck I'm afraid. I've just backed up so I think I'm going to remove IE8 and see what happens. I will let you know.

Now I've got a problem, it won't let me uninstall without permission from something called "TrustedInstaller".

I know its best to uninstall first but have you tried to reinstall without uninstalling

Just trying, I can't get my installer to run and I can't find a site that will support Windows7
