Hello!
I have been consistently having a problem of Internet Explorer freezing up (motion stops, I hear stalled sound, and rotating rainbow pinwheel appears). This usually occurs when I am on-line checking email or a browsing a website and click on a link. The only way to get out that I've figured out is to do a Force Quit via Option/apple key plus Esc. Any idea what the source of this bug is or how I can address the problem? Is it a bug with the computer, the internet company (Qwest broadband), or with the software? Thanks!

Internet Explorer for the Mac has been abandoned by Microsoft. No updates for more than 3 years, and many people have problems with using it. You should go to a more modern browser, such as Safari (came with your Mac for the last 4 years), or one of several other good web browsers, such as FireFox, Camino, OmniWeb, and a few others.
