Help Internet Explorer Wont Open Links!

when i click links in I.E it opens a new I.E window but wen i click on the tab on the taskbar it disappears. I dont know what is wrong,

by disappear do you mean I.E. closes? sounds like you either have a corrupt I.E. which was probably caused but some spyware or virus. If you have an ainti-virus program installed I would recomend running a scan. You can also try to run Spybot search & destroy and Ad-Aware on it for the spyware. If those don't help or you are unsure what I am talking about you can always make an appointment to come in and have your computer checked out, just call 626-tech
