only started late yesterday.

flickers the IE browser screen, then said problem with macromedia something, then crashed out.

it shouldn't call up any macromedia stuff (flash)

Sounds like a bug with the browser - can you reinstall a copy from MS?

Working fine for me on IE6 now.

Mine was doing the similar thing last night (browser just closing as soon as I went to some sites inc. this). I did notice that it had downloaded and installed an update from MS. Rebooted and cleared the cache, all okay.

Why are you still using IE ?? It's poo & since I moved to Firefox, I've not had any malware or virus problems - IE seems to seek crap out from the net and let it install itself on your PC !!!
