Hello I have a pentium 4 dual 2core computer running vista ultimate. Suddenly IE wont launch..I click on it and nothing happens..firefox runs fine. Also at the same I have lost the copy and paste functions with files I cannot copy a file to another direct or cut and paste it to another directory. Any ideas? Thank you.

charlesatlas, You click on IE and nothing happens, are you sure??
Is it running under processes as Iexplore.exe
Does it work ok if you run it as administrator?
I have no idea about your copy and paste problems but I think you should have listed it separately.

Is Iexplorer you default browser? If not select it as default (Control panel - Default programs) and verify in internet options control panel in progams tab if "tell me if internet explorer is not... is checked.

Personally, I would stick with Firefox.

explorer.exe is not IE....it's windows explorer. IE would show up as iexplore.exe
