Default Browser problem

I have problem with my browsers (both IE and Firefox) when visitng some safe places such as Yahoo. When trying to enter the games rooms, doesnt matter which game I choose, the browser closes, inclusive the ones that are already open. I have ran all kinds of antispyware and antivirus, but it hasnt helped at all.
What do you think I should do?

Hi what version of IE are you running? you could check you internet security setting or set them to medium or low setting

Change the Security Level of a Zone

Follow these steps to raise or lower the threshold of security for any zone—for example, you might want to raise the security setting of your Trusted sites to medium-low.
1.
On the Internet Explorer 6 Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2.
Click the Security tab, and then click the zone for which you want to change the security level.
3.
Drag the slider to set the security level to High, Medium, Medium-low, or Low.
Internet Explorer 6 describes each option to help you decide which level to choose, asking for confirmation when you loosen its restrictions.

Internet Options box


4.
When you’ve finished, click OK.

also try this How to use Reset Internet Explorer Settings (RIES)

let us know the results

Hi Madmatt,
I did disable the firewall and one antispyware that used to monitor my pc, but it didnt help.

Hi Merlin,
Yes there are some red and yellow marks under these two categories. What shall I do with them?
