So I bring up IE6, it brings up the homepage just fine.

If I try to go ANYWHERE else, even a link off of said page, it spawns a new window and....sits....and does nothing.

Ideas?

(XP, plenty of system resources)

i would guess a difficult Trojan to find maby try this and see if it helps , has me on a few occasions

http://www.superantispyware.com/

pappy177
i assume it was working fine before.
burntkat
yep, will run that and see what i find.

Found a few cookies. Deleted, no improvement.
I've run Adaware, Spybot, the above mentioned program, no change.

Try a system restore.

Found this................... IE6

Hmm, that worked before, but not this time.

I wish I could install IE7. Being that MS says my version of Windows is not legal (uh, BS!), I can't install all the latest upgrades and so on.

Bastards.

Hey BK, why don't you use FF instead? A lot better than IE.
MBF
Good idea Dark, or if you want something almost identical, give Avant a look.

Also, if he likes old-fashioned browsers, he should take a look at Safari. I insist, IE isn't good at all.

Sorry-

I am SO xxxxxxx TIRED of hearing people tell me that.

1) I don't LIKE FF.

2) The app (work) I am trying to get to does not support FF. Thankfully.

UTP, I could kiss you right now.

Not in a homosexual way, mind. But in a "DUDE! That kicks ass!" way.

Settle for a brew, mate? icon_smile.gif
