I wonder if switching off the plugins/extensions in IE will cease visiting those websites.

Sorry it took so long to respond.  Attached is the new fix log.  I also attached a screenshot showing the multiple iexplorer.exe *32 processes running. Is that related to multiple tabs being open?  Where/how do I turn off plugins/extensions?  Is it under the advanced tab or is it an add-on located somewhere else? Would it help if I enable protected mode in my settings?

 

Thanks.

Hi and sorry for the delay, my network connection went south :blink:

 

 

Yep, the multiple processes belong to multiple tabs. Same result you will get when running Chrome. This is to improve the comfort when one tab (process) get unresponsive - the others should work normally.
