Start
Run
type in regedit.exe
then open HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
Microsoft
Internet Explorer
Main
In the right hand pane create a new DWORD called RunOnceHasShown and give a value of 1
Then create another new DWORD call RunOnceComplete and give a value of 1
Restart Internet Explorer

and if you couldnt be bother doing that, just get a superior browser like Firefox
