Stop using IE.
There are more worthy (in terms of security, of features, etc...) browsers out there.
Firefox, Opera, Safari, *gulp* even Chrome.

And thats why I upgraded to Firefox a couple of years ago. I got sick of MS's crap, went to slimbrowser (On a friends advice) then switched to Firefox which I haven't changed from.
