I have tried all of the things that you have suggested and still can't seem
to even get to google or any of the other pages that I've tried to get to.
Is there a way of running windows live one care with ie6 cause I will just
uninstall ie7 and go back to ie6 if my onecare will work with it. I have
even reformatted my hard drive and started from scratch to make sure that
everything was fresh and there were no problems with the install of any
programs but that didn't work either..getting very frustrated with ie7.
