Guest LVLITIG8R Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 I have XP sp 3, IE 7, Nortan AntiVirus 2006 v. 12.8.0.4 and use AOL 9.0 SE. When I am on AOL, IE7 will frequently open on its own and open new blank pages continuously, in rapid succession, display "ads.web.aol.com" and lock the keyboard. The only thing that works is: ctrl-alt-del, end the AOL and IE7 tasks, then reboot. However, it then routinely starts all over again. Any suggestions of what I can do to stop this ???
Guest Bob I Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Re: HELP!? IE7 in uncontrollable continous loop Avoiding AOL works for me. Perhaps ask their tech support what the issue is?
