Is that happening with all browsers or is it 1 particular browser you are using ?

Does the laptop work ok before you open any browsers ?

The browser is Internet Explorer. Could this be related to the fact that as of yet windows update has never worked?? The laptop was purchased 4 months ago! Thanks for the speedy reply!

This morning I tried going through Firefox and same thing happened...froze after a few minutes, so I then restarted and did not open any web pages...same thing happened even with no browsers open... any ideas?? :huh:

I have also run a number of scans (antivirus, antimalware, online scan housecall, etc etc etc). Nothing found on any scans. All cookies cleared with CC cleaner. I don't know what else to try. I have a feeling there is some folder or something missing in Windows update...?
