Pissed Why won't my browser open some links?

I run Windows 98 still and use Explorer 6.0. I also use ZoneAlarm and AVG Free edition AntiVirus. I mention these because I had a feeling at one time that those might be causing the problem.
Anyway, when I click some, not all, links within my browser, sometimes absolutely nothing happens...no error message of any kind. However, occasionally "Javascript error" text displays at the bottom left of the browser window. Also, if I copy and paste the "problem" link into the address window, it'll take me to where I need to go, usually.
Also, if I have more than one browser open at once, my PC won't allow me to click back and forth between them via the Toolbar. I've searched and poked and prodded and have not found anything to help.
Anyone have any answers for me? I'd appreciate it.

Hi Iglus


what are some of the links you are clicking and not being able to get to

It may be a security app that may be causing it what kinds of protection do you have on your computer. besides AVG and Zone Alarm

On Internet options click on advanced tab and restore defaults and check your system for malware( specialy for spyware cos you didn't mention any antispyware on your system) !!!

Here is one for you free of charge: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
