KeepSafe blocking IE from Launching

After installing KeepSafe, I can't launch internet explorer. I can launch firefox fine. But IE will just turn to hourglass for a few seconds and the mouse will return to normal but no IE window. I can see in the task manager iexplorer.exe running but no window. But if I unload KeepSafe, I can launch IE again. Any ideas?

Do you have KeepSafe set to backup files in the IE directory or in its temp directory? Try adding those as excludes and see if it fixes things up.

I tried excluding the internet explorer folder in the program files directory and the temporary internet files folder as well. I even excluded the windows directory. None of thesee help. Interesting point (or maybe not interesting). I kill KeepSafe. I launch IE. I launch KeepSafe. I can then go to the existing IE and create new IE windows. But I cannot launch a new IE process by clicking on the icon on the desk top or start menu.

I have this problem on my desktop computer but not my laptop. Any help would be appreciated.

Looks like it's the new MSN toolbar w/ their Google Desktop like search. I uninstalled that and now IE loads up fine. I suggest you guys test KeepSafe with the new MSN toolbar.
