Take IE Back in Time

Problem: Internet Explorer has become completely unusable for browsing the Web.

Fast Fix: If you've tried other repair measures and are ready to take a drastic step, reset all of IE's options to their original state. Your list of Favorites, your toolbar configurations, and other customized changes will be unaffected, and your browser add-ons will be only disabled, not deleted. However, IE temp files, cookies, browsing history, stored passwords, sites added to your trusted zones, and more settings will be obliterated or returned to their default values. If you don't mind any of that, open IE and choose Tools, Internet Options. Select the Advanced tab, and click the Reset button. Click Reset again to confirm your decision, and then click Close, and OK twice. Finally, restart your revitalized IE.
