How do I hide or eliminate Internet Explorer? It keeps repeatedly opening

Internet Explorer complicates my use of a browser, I want to block IE and not use it,
I would prefer to use something other than Vista if it is possible. (Constant updating and virus's )
What Virus program should I use?

What browser is your default browser? I notice you posted using Google Chrome (or a browser that identified itself as Google Chrome).
For advice on Vista and antivirus, consider a forum that is more general purpose than this one; we support Mozilla products.

    How or where do I download Internet Explorer for Mac OS 10.7.5?

    Internet Explorer is only supported on Windows, so you can't use it on OS X. There are a lot of browsers like Safari, Firefox or Chrome for Mac, so try them. If you need Internet Explorer, you have to install Windows on your computer. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3321

  • How do I hide or eliminate the bookmarks toolbar, to save space in the tool bars section.

    ''Locking as duplicate post, continue here - [/questions/754592]''
    All the tool bars take up too much space at the top of the page, and I do not use the bookmarks anyway, so how do I hide or eliminate this portion of the tool bars to allow more space at the top of the page.?

    In the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the names of the toolbars that you want to hide. You can also right-click on a toolbar and click on the name of the toolbar to toggle displaying it. Active toolbars will have a tick by their name.

  • How do I get rid of internet explorer on my laptop

    I am so done with microsoft, hotmail and i.e.
    How do I get rid of internet explorer?

    The Microsoft/Windows Update site requires IE to get your monthly updates from Microsoft. So how do you plan to get your monthly updates for Windows without IE?
    Even with the Add-ons for Firefox that allow you to open an IE tab in Firefox, you must have IE installed on your system.

  • Internet Explorer is crashing when opening application

    Internet Explorer is crashing when opening application.
    Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.11
    Oracle JInitiator 1.3.1.22

    I was having similar issues turned out to be a problem with the Jinitiator proxy setting. If you go into Win->control panel->Jinitiator Then Proxies and UNCHECKE the 'Use browser settings' option it may fix the problem.
    My Setup: Winxp SP3, IE7.0.5730.11CO, Jinitiator 1.3.1.26
    I was able to open Apps using Firefox3 fine, but IE was crashing everytime Jinitiator started. Turns out it's because of how the proxies in IE versus FF were setup, so it could open via the FF browser Proxy setting but not via the IE7 proxy settings. Telling Jinitiator to NOT use the browser setting enabled me to use both IE7 and FF3
    Note: My company uses a automated proxy configuration script (proxy.pac) so if you have a similar setup to this it may help.

  • F12 tools cause Internet Explorer 11 to not open any sites; blank white page only

    On Windows 8.1 with Internet Explorer 11, if I open the F12 tools and close IE without closing the F12 tools, the next time I open IE (for any site) it opens to a blank white page and nothing loads. The workaround is to open IE using the "iexplore.exe
    -extoff" command > turn on the F12 tools > and then close the F12 tools using the 'X' from the F12 tools pane > and then close IE. After this, IE opens all pages fine. Has anyone else seen this behavior with the F12 tools? Is there possibly a
    hotfix for this?

    Hi,
    On my test machine, I cannot reproduce this issue, this would be related to IE settings.
    I would like to suggest you try reset IE or test without addons to check result.
    1. Run IE with no add-ons. Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Internet Explorer (with no add-ons). 
    2. Try to reset IE to resolve the issue.
    How to reset Internet Explorer settings
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
    Please understand that reset Internet Explorer to its default configuration. This step will also disable any add-ons, plug-ins, or toolbars that are installed.If this doesn't work, please provide us the error message in the Event Viewer for further research.
    Hope it helps.

  • How to get Internet Explorer to ask for Open/Save

    For most binary file types, Internet Explorer asks whether you want to open or save the file, and gives you a further choice of skipping that prompt in the future. Nothing I do gives me access to this prompt for PDFs and Adobe Reader. On a computer out of the box, with a fresh installed of Adobe Reader set not to open PDFs in a browser window, a click on a link to a PDF will open automatically in Adobe Reader. It will not prompt me whether I want to open or save the file.
    I can edit this choice in the registry for any other type of file. For instance, if I set MP3s to open automatically in Windows Media Player when clicked, and then I change my mind, I can delete a certain key in the registry and I'll be prompted once again. This is not true for PDFs associated with Adobe Reader.
    So my question is, how can I get Internet Explorer to prompt me whether I want to open or save the PDF?
    I'm using Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 8.

    From Microsoft ou will see IE is not available for the Mac:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/answers?tId=11114787-fc3a-4179-a0ca-d f6b407caec4
    You can try the web page in Safari (which is already installed), or
    try downloading and installing firefox (download from here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) or
    try google chrome (https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/?brand=CHMA&utm_campaign=en&utm_so urce=en-ha-na-us-bk&utm_medium=ha)

  • How can I get back my internet explorer which has been removed when I have downloaded Mozilla Firefox?

    I want to download Mozilla Firefox as an optional browser as I can only access a website for work through this browser. However, when I downloaded MF, even though I tick that I do not want it as my default browser or homepage, it downloads, but has removed my Internet Explorer connection. This has happened a couple of times now and is very frustrating. I don't know how to get my IE back and keep the option of MF available. MF seems to automatically delete/remove IE when it is downloaded. I am using Windows 8. I would appreciate help and advice to correct this situation. Many thanks.

    Hi, Philipp,
    Thank you very much for your prompt reply and support. The IE icon disappeared immediately after I downloaded MF. I tried to download IE again but without success. In the end all my icons on my start page disappeared, although I do not think this was to do with MF. I had to resort to restoring my lap top to factory settings for the umpteenth time and I have now got IE back but no MF. I will keep your advice and will try again when I am feeling brave enough and have sufficient time to try and download MF again. I am not confident with technical problems and greatly appreciate your help and support.
    Kind regards, K.

  • How can I open just one of my several homepages in the current tab? You can in Internet Explorer but can only open all at once in lots of tabs with Firefox?!?

    Within Internet Explorer you can click on a little arrow next to the homepage icon and a dropdown appears with a list of your homepages (I have 5). So if I want to quickly check my facebook or e-mail I can click on it and then on whichever I want to visit (both are homepages). It is much quicker than using bookmarks/typing it in and I don't like the 'permanent tab' feature as I don't want them always open. Does this feature already exist?

    You can create a folder with the home pages by using "Bookmark All Tabs" to open a specific page.
    You can place that folder on the bookmarks toolbar or use the Bookmarks menu button that you can find in the toolbar palette to get access to that folder easily.
    * Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.
    * "Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page.
