install FF or chrome, superior cookie handline imo.

"im running the latest Internet Explorer,"

I think that about says it all. Try Firefox 3.5.2 and avoid I.E. like the plague.

Install Firefox make it your default browser. Use IE only for Windows update.

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ie.html

It's free and fast. It will import all your IE favorites.

I say install opera, it doesn't suffer from the plague of memory leaks and viruses etc which afflict Firefox and IE. I've used it for years, it's very customisable, stable with a great popup blocker.

Just touching IE makes me feel soiled....
