Can't Print from IE 6 Can't Open Links in web pages

[siggy1]

After deleting files Ad-aware listed as spyware, I can no longer print from web, open web pages from links in Outlook Express 6.0 email or open some links within web pages. My printer completely ignores the print command from File or the Print icon in Internet Explorer 6.0, but otherwise prints perfect. In all my years with working with computers, I have never come across this before and am at a loss as to how to correct problem. Thanks for any useful information.

Try running a repair on IE and on the printing issue goto file print and make sure it still knows what to use as the printer

AdAware in the late 5.x releases and early 6.0 Pro releases has the unfortunate habit of trashing your windows service stacks under XP.

If you download and run this little utility I am very confident your problems will go away.
