Webmaster Forum / Browsers / Internet Explorer / August 2008

I was having trouble with my internet connection where IE said my DSL was
disconnected, but I still had my voip phone still running.  ATT said the
problem was with IE as I was having a lot of white screens.  Is this a
problem with IE or my DSL?

I always thought that hitting the red cross stopped the page from

and was using the computer.  At some point IE got screwed up.
So right now when IE is launched, no IE window is created or started.
