i just closed internet explorer, and then it opened on its own, not just once but about 200 times.

why did it do this.

Sounds like you may have picked up a virus. Restart your computer and update your antivirus software. Scan your computerand remove any dodgy files

SEE IF THERE IS DLL FILE vtmU***.DLL FILE!.
IF YES , THEN SEE IF THERE IS mrofinu1535.exe IN THE PROCESS OR STARTUP,IN TASKMANAGER IF YOU HAVE WIN XP PRO.
IF YES, THEN CONGRATS! YOU HAVE A VIRUS.

HENCE NEVER USE A BETA VERSION OF INTERNET EXPLORER!.

BETA VERSION OF IE IS FOR ADVANCED & TESTERS ONLY.BETA MEANS TEST VERSION.IT IS NOT COMPLETE!.

i think you should just throw the computer out the window! DO IT NOW!!!

get firefox

its much better

You have a Virus.
Try an anti virus like Noadware

It's a miracle that your computer did not crash!

Use Task Manager to check for a process that may be causing this to happen.

Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and click on the Processes tab.

Look for a process that does not have SYSTEM or LOCAL SERVICE or NETWORK SERVICE next to it.

Then do a Google search on the process name to find out what it does. Eventually you will come across one that is probably causing your problem.
