this is POOR and there should not be any crashes at all.there is usurpation and direction to other sites and browsers in the system. which is considered to be disgraceful if commercial activity by the browser companies themselves.

I have 3 instances running also. I noticed that I coincidentally have 3 applications open (Glary Main Prog, Glary Process Mgr, and IExplore.exe), and the start times of those 3 instances (shown under "details")seems to coincide with the times that each of the applications opened. Unless I read otherwise here, I'll assume this is correct.

I have blocked / renamed / deleted this yet it keeps coming back! I don\'t ever use internet explorer yet it seems to open for a second every few seconds as a system process. No matter what I try it keeps coming back. The version on my pc is definitely third party malware. (and not the usual windows malware)
