After deleting my cookies with 3rd party software (has worked
successfully many times before), I now cannot access my IE
preferences. When I try, I get the system busy color wheel. I tried
deleting IE and its prefs folder and reinstalling, but this does not
make the problem go away. IE works fine except that I cannot change
the prefs.

Please help, I am not a fan of Safari and need my IE back.

Thanks

Try deleting these files:
~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.Explorer.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.internetconfig.plist

("~" = HD/Users/<Your User>/)
