Investigation of Wal-Mart instead of Internet Explorer

July 13, 2011 I tried to get INTERNET EXPLORER on my computer so that I would be able to discuss with Time Warner Cable.  I had problems with my computer and IE was one of several Internet sites, they used.  I tried two times to connect, but whenever I tried, I got a survey by Wal-Mart, not my favorite company. They had three offers to complete this rose, which was a credit of $1000.00 at Best Buy.  I thought that WOW, why not.  Try to fill in this questionnaire, I realized it was the same investigation, I had done once before.  These people, a sort of diabetic or medical supply (safe) club would fail at the end of this questionnaire until I gave them permission to call me.  Not wanting to let this happen again, I closed this site and got angry with Microsoft.  It would have been nice to spend $ 1000.00 at Best Buy.  It would also be nice to connect with Time Warner Cable.  Instead, I got involved with a scam, which makes feel me like a fool, I'm not.

In the future, it would be nice to not deal with this interruption, the next time I try to use INTERNET EXPLORER.  Please tell me how has escaped this problem in the future.  In addition, if an owner Microsoft is around, could they give me credit at Best Buy?  I guess you don 't have to answer this question.
Thank you.

Looks like your system of malware infection.

When you use your browser to go to a place and you end up somewhere else, it is a sign of "browser hijacking".

This is due to lack of Microsoft it's usually fault someone else to leave their system to be infected by malware, or the fault of your current antivirus/antimalware software that has not failed to protect your system (and probably last).  It does not mean that you are a fool - you just have to take better precautions and jack your skepticism of a few notches when you are on the Internet.

These problems are very common when you "fall for her" (the plan) and not particularly difficult to solve.

It is difficult to prescribe the right solution when your system knows nothing, but that's the way they choose to run MS Answers forums.

Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.   Really, I can't imagine how things could be worse here.

Provide information on your system, the better you can:

What is your system brand and model?

What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

What you see you don't think you need to see?

What do not you think that you should see?

If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  • Emergency aid! Internet Explorer...

    So I just bought a

    Laptop HP G72-B57CL with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    Use Google Chrome instead of Internet Explorer, and I used Chrome when a dialog box appeared on Internet Explorer is not not my fault, and if I wanted to change that. I clicked no to keep the Chrome as a default. In the background, a large empty white screen appeared. This screen is most likely a browser, and I guess it is Internet Explorer. It says "done" in the lower left corner and has a few other useless buttons in the lower right corner. It does not minimize, maximize or exit, or even a status bar or taskbar. It's just a big white screen. There is no way to quit or minimize it. It is not even appear in the Task Manager. Whenever I turn on the laptop, it is already there. If you know a way to get this problem to stop, please answer. Thanks for your time

    Hello

    On the Start Menu, open the control panel and open programs and features.  Click on the link above left called 'Turn Windows has or not'.  Remove the tick from the box next to Internet Explorer 8, and then click Ok.  IE8 is off, restart the PC and see if the problem is resolved.

  • Pages served to Internet Explorer is loaded into a Firefox window instead.

    I just started to have "Secure connection failed" on trying to connect to a financial site that has always worked before, so I decided to see if the same problem exists by using Internet Explorer. I finished Firefox, then started to IE, which came up OK with my blank home page. But when I entered the URL for the login page of the Web site, instead of coming in the window of IE, a Firefox window starts automatically, and the page you requested is here instead. So, basically, I'm unable to use IE for anything whatsoever.

    In the Windows search bar, type internet, and then select Internet Options.

    On the top row, select programs.

  • Can I remove internet explore and use chrome instead?

    Can I remove internet explore and use chrome instead? That is, crashes, to stop, resarts and slows my computor. I installed Google Chrome and have had no more problems. It opens and closes when I want it and going to the Web pages as I type in without hesitation. I like windows 7, I only have a problem with Internet Explore. It also caused changes in my modem. I need to uninstall the software and reinstall to get it working again. IO would open that is and get a message that says "no internet access - check your settings, I thought it was a virus at some point. As soon as I started using Chrome, everything worked again. That is also caused problems with my printer and home network. I don't mind that is being stored in a file, I don't want to work and make changes to my computer I'm not an it expert by any means. I restored my pc to an earlier time and new conditions of factory several times in the past year (I bought the HP pc new in December 2010).

    It is not really a way to remove Internet Explorer.  I have not heard of the type of problems, you had with IE, but if you prefer Chrome and who works for you, all you need to do is to make Chrome the default browser.  I use Firefox and make it my default browser.  Once you make Chrome default you just leave Internet Explorer installed but it won't get used.  Following comes the site help Chrome and tells how to do it by default: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95417

  • Restoration of openers program: how to restore the original program of opening such as internet explore and itunes instead of notepad ++

    on my computer, I have somehow changed the settings for applications on windows 7 open with notepad ++ how to restore the original program of opening such as internet explore and itunes instead of notepad ++

    I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After selection of Notepad ++ (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of installed programsand checking the always use the selected program to open this type of file, document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in Notepad ++ as it should.

    The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the browser will want to open Notepad ++ and use the icon of Notepad ++ to display the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon.

    The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unASSOC for its ease of use.

    A utility to Unassociate Types of files in Windows 7 and Vista

    Just download and then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files. Manual is available on the web page above (the same place to get the utility). Quite simply, you run the program and wait for the list of the types of files to complete. Select. LNK in the list and then click delete the file type.

  • I have Firefox as my main browser, but it took on my Internet Explorer browser page. If I want to use that is I can't. Instead, I get a Firefox download page

    Firefox works fine. It's my main browser. But I have two of them (?) Now I have no Internet Explorer (which I use too and I also use Google when I choose to do so). But when I click on the icon that is, loading a Firefox page asking me to download Firefox, I already have the latest version of. Sometimes, I need all 3 different browsers. NOT 2 Firefox browsers. I need to have my be restored and I cannot figure out how to do. Firefox has not only updated my regular main Firefox browser, but it also took over the I.e. browser, too.

    Firefox is a separate web browser (for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux), as it integrates with IE isn't a shell for IE on Windows.

    Are you sure that your IE is not just opening to www.mozilla.org url in the address bar to download Firefox?
