When I go to click on internet options it blinks and shuts before I can even

click on anything , this is getting really annoying , I want to change

settings but it won't even allow me access to the options , am running

Version 7.0.5730 with XP and service pack 2

Is this just another way to make me want to upgrade to Vista ?

Re: Internet Options doesn't open up

 

You can change settings via the Control Panel/Internet Options.

 

Once your system is clean merge line 225:
