When I go to sites like dell.com and Outlook Web Access, even the microsoft
newsgroup websites, and it pulls up a pop-up window(and the sites are
allowed through SP2's pop-up blocker) the window appears, but nothing loads.
Any Idea's?

Seems like my son inadvertedly opened an email that infected my system. I
have Windows XP Pro SP1, Mcafee Viruscan (up to date).
The bug affects only IE since Mozilla Firefox runs fine, the problem is that
it seems to have slowed the system down. Everytime I open IE it opens with a

I seem to have found a bug in IE 6.
Please could someone check out these simple test cases and give me
some feedback and perhaps a workaround?

I have been using internet explorer 6 (Internet explorer Q889283).
Since a few weeks ago I notice when I use internet explorer for the first
time a day I can not type any thing there (for example, to search something)
same time the close button on the right top corner does not work ...

My internet explorer 6 with sp2 has stopped opening shortcuts.  Any
suggestions on a fix?

Can anyone please assist.
I have XPhome and use internet explorer 6 that came pre installed with my
PC. It has SP 1 loaded for some months and all has worked well.
I am in a student house with a shared broadband connection. All other PC's

I don't use file drag-and-drop function of IE heavily, but recently I
needed to copy Outlook Express messages to some folder on disk and got
"Error Copying File or Folder" message with text "An error occured
while copying the file".

When I start any .htm file from MCSEReadiness Review folder I have this
error mesage:
Internet Explorer Script Error
An error has occured in the script on this page.

In nearly every IE session, when I type a new or modify the URL input
boxe's string, I receive the IE error box, acknowledge it
and IE abends closing all my window. Sometimes just
selecting the string and pushing the delete key invokes the error.

Trying to find forum to find out why the paperclip appears beside messages I
send when they donot have an attachment. Why is this happening. DOne a virus
check no sign of one.
Many thanks

When using expedia.co.uk a lot of the images do not load properly. They come
up in blocks with a red 'x' inside. The calendar doesn't work either, nor do
the 'virtual tours'. I know it's not a site problem because it works on
another computer. Any suggestions?

I noticed recently when using an XP system that Internet Explorer has a new
pop-up blocker installed, which I believe is part of service pack two.
However, various systems I use have had service pack two downloaded onto
them, yet don't appear to have the pop-up blocker.  Does anyone ...

Most of the time, when I go back with my browser, I get a "page expired"
error, and have to refresh it back. This is not necessarily for a page with
form info, or anything, just a regular plain page.
Also, most of the time, when I try to view the source of a page, nothing
