When i double click internet explorer an error comes up saying "insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service." What is the deal with this error? I have Internet explorer up right now but im afraid to close it because i dont think i will be able to bring it back up again. Im just trying to reopen internet explorer in another window but it wont let me. It has been working fine since i got it yesterday and it just started doing this a few minutes ago. What seems to be the problem and what do i need to do to fix it?

I don't suppose you're running any anti-virus or spyware stopper on your system? Sounds like you might've caught a bug. Or you need to reboot. Or you've installed some IE add-on which doesn't work very well.

You might search technet.microsoft.com with your error message and see what that turns up. If nothing, try visiting windowsupdate.microsoft.com and make sure you're well patched and updated.
