Try removing and reinstalling Internet Explorer. Also search this site for other remedies. This is a common question.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion.. I ended up going to Dell who talked me through and managing to download I37 AND 8which I had tried and wouldn't let me... if I had tried with Google Chrome it would've worked... as it happens everything back to normal... thanks philthy
