Introduction:

Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) is light years ahead of its predecessors, but does not mean that proclaims that the browser is perfect. You will always have problems with IE from time to time.

Here are some concise guides offer some troubleshooting steps to resolve most problems we encountered with IE7.

Problems with Internet Explorer 7. 0 with solutions

Problem: crashes or hangs

If IE crashes, the problem most likely is that there’s a buggy add-on (Toolbar or Browser Helper Object). In order to verify and isolate the buggy add-in, follow these steps:

(Reference: http://support. Microsoft. Com /? Id = 928426)

If IE still crashes often, even when the browser add-ons are disabled:

Problem: Can not connect to the Internet with IE, after the updates installed

If you see “Can not display page” error after you install Internet Explorer updates from Windows Update, you must have installed a third-party firewall is blocking access because the files in Internet Explorer update. Please see http://support. Microsoft. com/kb/942818/en-us for more information.

Problem: which is always started in “No Add-ons” mode

The problem is that we are launching Internet Explorer using a shortcut icon that has the “-extoff” on the command line. This setting allows you to start without saying add-ons. Therefore, each time you use the shortcut icon, it will start without add-ons in IE mode.

Problem: IE Window opens small

IE opens new windows on the size of the last window closed. If you find that IE is opening small windows, do this:

Problem: ClearType text is blurred

IE7 is a technology called ClearType text-smoothing “by default. ClearType is scientifically proven to make the text easier to read, especially on flat screen LCD.

If ClearType is blurry on your monitor, you can try the ClearType Tuning Wizard that can help you adjust the ClearType display.

If you still do not like the look of ClearType, you can disable it by unchecking the box: Tools | Internet Options Advanced | | Multimedia | Always use ClearType for HTML.

Problem: Starting IE takes a long time (more than 3 seconds)

1. IE can start very slowly if you have a large number of sites listed in the Trusted sites zone. Tools such as SpyBot Search & Destroy “will place thousands of sites in these areas if you use the” immunize “feature.

2. Follow the “Crashing at startup” steps above to see if there is no way to run faster Firefox

3. If you are not using a proxy, uncheck IE “Automatically detect settings” in Tools | Internet Options Connections | dialogue | LAN Settings.

Problem: Slow Page Rendering

1. Increase the connection limit. This trick allows IE to make up to 16 connections per server.

2. Make sure HTTP1. “A checkbox” in Tools | Internet Options | Advanced is checked.

Problem: Can not install IE7 Internet Explorer

Problem: My address bar will not be green?

IE7 includes a cool new feature that turns green when the address bar of a secure site presents a certificate of Extended Validation:

If you have problems with this feature on a site that you know has an EV certificate:

Problem: After installing, IE7 starts then vanishes

It is possible that one of the DLL is not installed correctly IE

Problem: Error message PSAPI. DLL

If you install Internet Explorer 7 and the following error message starts to display:

The procedure entry point could not be GetProcessImageFileNameW located in the dynamic link library PSAPI. DLL

Problem: who will always http://runonce. msn. com/runonce2. aspx page instead of my homepage

If IE7 always goes to the RunOnce page on startup, even after trying to save the configuration of the first race, it is possible that the mechanism that IE uses to save the settings do not work for some reason.

You can prevent Internet Explorer by going to the RunOnce page and make it directly to your homepage by running this script.

For more information, see this Knowledge Base article. ]

The problem is always going to http://www. Microsoft. com / windows / downloads / ie / getitnow. mspx instead of my homepage

If Internet Explorer is still going on this page to start, chances are you have a package of anti-spyware (such as “Spybot”) preventing IE to properly edit the registry.

Try running this script. Note: You may have to disable anti-spyware tool temporarily to the script works.

Problem: In the beginning, ie always displayed an error message on the AOL toolbar

If you see the following error message every time you start Internet Explorer: “Could not find” file: / / / C: / Program Files / AOL Toolbar / reception. Html ‘. Make sure the address or the path to the Internet is correct. “… So you’re a bug in the AOL toolbar.

Try running this script. Note: You may have to disable anti-spyware tool temporarily to the script works.

Problem: I installed a “brand” version of IE7, but I prefer a “simple” copy without toolbars and customizations.

Problem: Malware / Adware

If Internet Explorer is behaving strangely (crashing, visit unwanted websites, etc.), there may have malicious software installed on your computer.

Initially, you should allow your antivirus software to examine and attempt to repair the equipment. In addition, you can try the following Microsoft tools:

Also make sure your computer has all the latest security updates available on Microsoft Update.

Problem: My research is redirected to sites not and I can not connect to Windows Update or antivirus

If Internet Explorer searches are redirected to independent sites or search engines, it is possible that your computer is infected with malicious software (see previous tip). However, if the computer is now infected with malware, it is possible that at some point in the previous settings, the DNS fake malware on your computer. DNS works like a telephone book “internet” that maps the URL (like “WindowsUpdate. Microsoft. Com”) to Internet Protocol addresses (like “207 .. 46225221.”). To determine if a malicious server DNS is configured: – Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Network Connections. – Right-click the default connection, wireless local or general dial-up, if you use dial-up, and then click Properties. – Double-click Internet Protocol (TCP / IP) Check if set to something other than “obtain DNS servers automatically.” If so, contact your ISP to ensure that the address is correct, or set the “Obtain DNS servers automatically” is checked. Then, restart the computer.

Problem: After opening multiple tabs, Windows and IE painting abnormally.

Problem: A remote user is having network problems with Internet Explorer. How do I get information about your computer to help me solve?

Have the user run NetCheck and we will send you the log file.

Problem: very long headers result in errors or HTTP/4xx HTTP/5xx, especially in devices such as routers and webcams

Problems of this nature are typically caused by one of two request headers in yellow is longer than the device expects.

GET / HTTP / 1. 1 Accept: image / gif, image / jpeg, image / pjpeg, application / x-ms-application, application / vnd. MS-XpsDocument, application / xml + XAML application / x-ms-XBAP, application / vnd. MS-Excel, application / vnd. MS-PowerPoint, application / pdf, application / x-shockwave-flash, application / x-Silverlight application/x-silverlight-2-b2, * / * Accept-Language: en-us User-Agent: Mozilla / 4. 0 (compatible; MSIE 8. 0; Windows NT 6. 0; WOW64; Trident / 4. 0; SLCC1;. NET CLR 2. 0. 50,727;. NET CLR 1. 1. 4322; InfoPath. 2;. NET CLR 3 5.. 30 729 3.

These headers are generated outside the registry key. Usually, you can cut if you modify the registry, without significant side effects.

To trim the list of Accept header, click Start> Run> regedit. EXE. The Using Regedit, go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Internet Settings documents accepted. . . and elements to remove the name of “/ Type / Value” list to remove values that are not strictly necessary. Items in red are of lesser importance in black: image / gif, image / jpeg, image / pjpeg, application / x-ms-application, application / vnd.

MS-PowerPoint, application / pdf, application / x-shockwave-flash, application / x-Silverlight application/x-silverlight-2-b2, * / *

A similar problem may occur with the header User-Agent.

To cut the list in the header User-Agent, click Start> Run> regedit. EXE. The Using Regedit, go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Internet Settings 5. 0 Agent User avatar platform HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Internet Settings User Agent Post Platform
