Download mozilla. Your mom is not completely wrong but it's not that bad. IE is very much more sensitive to it.
Get a nice free firewall and spyware remover.

No No NO! What I'm talking about (and only trying to warn people about!) is a company called DirectRevenue who Yahoo does millions of dollars worth of business with! Check out Business Week magazine, July 17th, 06 and their front page article is all about it! All about how companies like DirectRevenue is full of what they call the EBOLA of spyware! It will kill your PC eventually and make it run real slow in the beginning, then kaput Windows does a 100% crash! I'd look into it! I certainly am! Sincerely, johnnyguit

Good Luck
p.s. You can go to "settings" "control panel" "add/remove programs" and find "Microsoft Internet Explorer" Choose "remove" and it will bring up a menu and ask if you would like to "repair"....choose "repair". That should fix the problem.

first download http://www.mozilla.com, it won't add spyware and if you are worried, download http://www.lavasoft.com/
It's perfect and removes all spyware.
If you stick to internet explorer, remove the spyware with that link I gave and go to tools (at the top)... internet options... delete all cookies and temporary internet files

Neopets is gay. Maybe you shouldn't go there for your own good.
