my computer recomended that I automatically update IE from version 6 to 7, so I duly clicked yes, went through the whole setup and now the program just won't open. There is an icon on the desktop, but every time i click it, it flashes as if it'll open, then it just shuts down. No error message, nothing? Is there a solution? Muc obliged.

Have you restarted your system?
My recommendation
Dump IE and use Firefox

Here's why

Go back to add and remove programs and remove IE 7, which will take you back to IE6. Then download IE 7 again and carefully be sure as download you follow directions like shut off your antivirus etc as it is coming in. I had same problem and that is how I corrected it. Doing fine now.

You only need to do a search on here to see how many people are having problems with IE7. The best thing to do is download Mozilla Firefox available from http://www.mozilla.com/ Its faster, more user friendly, easily customizable to suit your need and no problems.

There is an alternative I recommend: remove IE7 in Control Panel/Add remove programs and install FireFox: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
I was initially skeptical, but it does more and more efficiently than IE. And has lots of great add ons to simplify your browsing.
