First of all, hello. "First time poster".

I am desperately looking for help. Out of nowhere, my computer will not let
me surf the net through my address bar. Cannot pull down the drop down
menus of sites, cannot manually type in an address. When I try, screen
freezes....BUT, I can surf through clicking on links in my Favorites and
navigate through pages internally. I have made sure all my Microsoft
updates are up to date, Scanned for viruses w/Norton and ran Windows
Defender and Malicious software scan....finding nothing. Has anyone ever
heard of this problem? Thanks.

I'm having the exact same problem for the past three days, and have actually
gone through the same steps, updating Windows, my security system, etc. The
only difference is that my Microsoft Word files are also simultaneously
frozen as well, and I can't access my documents. I used system restore to go
back about one week and it stopped the problem for about 24 hours, and now
it's back again. I also cannot use my address bar in Internet Explorer, but
can access websites through my "favorites". Does anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks.

Same problem - first thing this morning except that when I hit the address
bar pulldown everything locks up. I have done all the virus checks, updates
and cleanups that I can think of, with no success. Any suggestions?

I am having the same problems I have also run all my antivirus and
anti-spyware. The address bar is none responsive and the drop-down stalls
the page. What is the solution to this?
