Hmmm
well, if you're feeling lucky ...
from the start menu, go to the 'run' command
enter 'regedit'
then navigate down the tree on the left to ...
hkey_current_user - software - microsoft - internet explorer - main
you should see quite a lot of stuff on the right, including
RunonceComplete
RunOnceHasShown
both of these have values of 1 when the 'runonce' has finished

Thank Phil.
Followed what you said. RunonceComplete and RunOnceHasShown does not appear in the list. Can I create it?

I'm sure you can create the registry entry mate, but tbh the best fix for Internet Explorer is called Firefox.

Firefox rules

Yep, updated my work pc on Friday to IE7 and it kept locking up!

I'm really fed up with it and gonna take it off!!!

I think you have to turn off your firewall/security/ad & pop-up blocker temporarily to allow the runonce script to run (then turn the security back on, of course!).
Stupid Microsoft.

Absolutely agree - 100%
Strange how MS IE7 looks almost identical to the previous version of Firefox.....

I've been running ie7 on 4 pcs for about 8-10 weeks and the only problems I've had are with norton 2007 crashing it on one machine until norton released a fix early last week.
We have about 20 engineers here, and the majority stick with ie as it does the job and i.t. support it
About half have upgraded to ie7 so far.

btw
if you add the runonce values - make sure they are DWORD !

So fed up with IE7 I loaded Firefox tonight.
No problems so far.
