I also told yahoo mail to revert to the basic display, rather than the newer. *My* mail is at least viewable; we'll have to try hers.
Or you could, you know, delete the IE icon from the taskbar and from the Start Menu Screen entirely.
Then she will have no choice but to use Chrome, which will be a general relief I should think.

That's what I generally do with any Windows PC I get my hands on.
