That could be a symptom that you are running something in normal mode
which is interfering. You could try using Task Manager, Process Explorer
or even tasklist (in a cmd window) to capture a list of active processes
each time and figure out which ones aren't being run in safe mode.
Then try preventing them from running in normal mode and see if that
changes your symptom.

That would be testing the hypothesis that you had an installation problem. ; )

Perhaps that is what wouldn't be running in safe mode?
Try asking Live One Care NG if there are any diagnostics in it
which would help clarify how far IE's requests are getting?
