snowberry Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I use Windows 7 & am using IE9. I regularly defrag & do all the good stuff for my computer (except move over to Chrome..I know, I know ) When I went to investigate in Task Manager, I discovered that IE has open 19 times. I could 'end process' for 18 of them, but which ones without making the computer unstable (as it warns me!) Do I keep the first one, or the last one on the list? Or am I just being a numpty? Thanks, Em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlina Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Don't worry about the 'making computer unstable' thing - it's jut a standard warning Personally I'd reboot it anyway (and then I'd switch to Chrome!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Ditto. Especially the switching to Chrome bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_H Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Ditto.Especially the switching to Chrome bit ditto - I use Firefox & Chrome. I only use IE if a site won't work with the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Rhode Island Red Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Switch to chrome. Faster, crashes a lot less, faster start up time, less susceptible to viruses and malware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
