re: Internet explorer won't close Friday, February 21, 2003 at 5:00 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by George Wendt (1 messages posted) Hi Everyone, I've had this very same problem for the last week. I have found the answer. It solves it on my computer running ie6 and windows xp. Simply go to internet options, advanced tab, uncheck the box for enable 3rd party browser extensions..... Hope it works for you... george On Monday, February 17, 2003 at 7:32 pm, Will wrote: > The other day, I started internet explorer (version 6) I noticed that I couldn't >close it.
