Default Other User Accounts can't access Internet Explorer

I recently installed Limewire.

My PC has four user accounts (me, the wife & two daughters).

I installed Limewire under my account.

I can still access internet explorer but my wife and daughters cannot.

When my wife clicks on Internet Explorer nothing seemingly happens. However looking in Task Manager shows that an Internet Explorer 'process' has started. The more times you click on Internet Explorer the more 'processes' are initiated. If you click on any thing after Internet Explorer they won't start either. However if you close the Internet Explorer 'process(s)' in Task Manager everything you clicked on after Internet Explorer suddenly comes to life. It's as if it was all banked up behind Internet Explorer waiting for it to finish firing up before they could start.

It's suspicious that the only account now with Internet Explorer is the one on which I installed Limewire.

Any helpful hints.

Dump Internet Explorer and download Firefox. Seriously, it causes nothing but problems. Firefox is way better.

note: you can even get an Internet Explorer plugin for it
