Web browser add-ons add functionality—like extra toolbars, animated mouse pointers, stock tickers, and pop-up ad blockers—to your Web browser to make browsing a little more fun or effective.
How add-ons end up on your computer
Many add-ons come from the Internet. Most add-ons from the Internet require that you give your permission before they are downloaded to your computer. Some, however, might be downloaded without your knowledge. This can happen if you previously gave permission for all downloads from a particular Web site or because the add-on was part of another program that you installed. Some add-ons are installed with Microsoft Windows.
Some add-ons can shut down your browser
Add-ons are typically fine to use, but sometimes they force Internet Explorer to shut down unexpectedly. This can happen if the add-on was poorly built or created for an earlier version of Internet Explorer.
Here's what you can do:
· Update it: If the add-on is an ActiveX component, you should check to see if the item has been updated.
· Disable it: If an add-on causes repeated problems, you can disable the add-on.
· Report it: When prompted, please allow the problem to be reported to Microsoft. This is completely anonymous and requires nothing from you but permission. These reports are used to improve our products and to encourage other companies to update and improve theirs.
