    That wouldn't be the first thing I'd try.

    I don't know what the answer is. Perhaps a system restore before the problem began.

    Re: Visual studio went crazy...

    I used shared DVD reader form other computer to install it.

    System restore helped but the problem suddenly occured again. Every time i do system restore visual studio configures my working enviroment and when it starts everything works. But if i close visual studio and reopen it problem occures again. Any ideas whats wrong?

    look under Tools->Options->Enviroment->Startup...check the "Start Page News Channel"...this points to a webpage and might be your problem.

    Problem might be your VS is trying to connect to MS for the News Feed and it can't.

    Sounds more like a general problem with modern interfaces that use web content and a browser control.
    Is your webbrowser (Internet Explorer) still functioning correct?

    I asked because Visual Studio uses the Internet Explorer components for the welcome page and some wizards.
