Have you tried running a virus scan to make sure it got all the virus?

Have you tried running the repair option for Internet Explorer?

Go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs then select internet explorer, click the remove button and you should get the option to repair.

I have the same problem, I tried the repair option aswell and it didn't work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and that didn't work either. In the end I just downloaded Opera Explorer and that worked okay but I'd still like to get IE working again. please help!

Does anyone else know any other way to fix this problem without having to format the hard drive?

try this, depends on what operating system you are using and what version of IE you are using.
