Microsoft Internet Explorer is the default web browser included in all copies of the Microsoft Windows operating system.

Sometimes, the Internet Explorer software locks up or freezes and does not respond to the user's commands. Learn how to fix Microsoft Internet Explorer when it is not responding to return to surfing the web.

A dialog box will appear that lists all software programs enabled to run when you turn on your computer. Disable all of the programs except for essential services such as your anti-virus software and firewall. Restart your PC.
