When i am surfing for the best price and comparisions on items, i open everything in new windows, after i have about 5 or so open for a while, and i open a new one or tab, it stays blank and says connecting in the tab and the status bar stays completly blank. I can not open any other explorer applications like, windows media player, a folder or even solitare untill i go in to the task manager and close iexplorer.exe and sometimes there are more than one. if i close all open windows first, iexplorer.exe will still be active in the task manager. it will not close when i close the browser. once i terminate it in the task manager, it operates fine untill i start opening more then it does it all over again. Any helpful sugestions? I have tried reinstalling everything and it doesn't help. Thank you
