If Firefox is working but Explorer isn't, open Explorer and go to Tools/Internet 
Options, hit the Advanced tab at the top, and press the big Reset button.  It'll 
take it a few minutes, and will, along with "fixing" Explorer, unset most of your 
Explorer settings.  (It won't lose your favorites, though).   Assuming Explorer is 
running after that, you'll need to reinstall your various add-ins, re-set whatever 
security settings you had before, etc.
