I've been having a problem with Internet Explorer lately.
I am able to click on links with the mouse but whenever
there is a field that requires text, I am not able to type
in that field. I have tried using TAB to select the field
but it will skip right over it. The first thing I did was
confirm that the keyboard worked. I can type in every
program except for Internet Explorer. So then I decided to
check out the Internet options and when selected, it will
pop up for about 1 second and then disappear. I then tried
to access the Internet Options from the control panel.
Same thing. Any help would be great.

Thanks,
