I HAVE TRIED TO REPAIR INTERNET EXPLORER BUT NO LUCK.

CAN ANYONE HELP.

I AM VERY SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS.

Mozilla or netscape should help, but do tell what Anti-Parasite (spyware) tools you are using.
IE, as we are learning is being exploited and I now take the stance that it is unsafe to use today.

Hi,
It only types in all caps when I use I.E.
I am using at this time opera.
I have tried a different keyboard nothing different in I.E.
Also I have ran chkdsk and it deleted alot of internet explrer files (cache files).
The caps tyhing is alos fixed in I.E now.
Yhe crashes still happen.
Anti-Parasite (spyware) tools you are using? None.
Widely discussed in these forums, the short list of tools to run and eject all they find is ...
Adaware, Spybot, Stinger, Cwshredder and Housecall.
ALL FREE TOOLS!!! I must emphasize this some some pests will see you looking for such (search hijackers) and direct you to sites you have to pay for the free stuff.
Start with ... http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35407 Links to downloads and more.

Hi,
Fixed.
It was not a parasite or virus or anything.
I had some software (that I installed) that did not work properly causing these problems.
And the software was written by me.
I will now look at the source code of the software to see my error.
How bizare.
