Go to tools in IE, click on internet options, go to programs and you will see "manage add-ons". Just click on it to see what is enabled.

Thank you!

I completely done away with IE and use only Firefox. In my opinion Firefox is easier to use, a lot more stable, and by far safer. I haven't had any problems with it at all.

it's not an end all answer though.. some of us simply don't have the option of ditching IE..

I had a look at that "manage add-ons" on my computer, and WOW! there's a bunch of'em. There's just one little problem. I know what a couple of them do, but not what most of them do, so I don't know which ones would be safe to get rid of and which ones wouldn't.

I've got IE8 never had a problem or complaint, Everyone I know that uses unconventional browsers are advanced techno type users and want to be different. IMO IE is fine for the vast majority of users, I don't like the fact that MS has this stranglehold on us, but if it works....
Just checked my ad ons for the first time, I have 8 disabled and 11 enabled.

I like the option of having the Google tool bar in IE8, comes in handy having that search engine right on top all the time, and that multiple tab thing is great also.

I have 42; all enabled. I even know what 2 or 3 of them are. I might start disabling one a day and see what happens.

good luck.
