IE6 acting funny
Explorer 6.0 all the sudden acting funny. Had prob 6 browser windows open at the same time. Tried going to other page and got a time out error. Computer slowed down alot. Tried another window that was open and another timeout error followed by a message that it was prob a Firewall. Not running software firewall just the router. Restarted comp and reset router and dsl modem. Clicked on IE icon to open it and the pointer turned to a hourglass for a few seconds and then turned back into a pointer. IE 6 wouldnt open. Restarted comp again and IE opened but was very slow in doing so. Seems ok for now. Any ideas?
TIA |

Sumdumgi,
You might go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and do a repair. Carl |

Thanks Kubie but that isnt a option in XP. Do you mean use the repair option for XP at install? IE6 doesnt show up in control panel under add remove.
Thanks |

Repairing IE is not an option, but it can be done read this
Re-install IE - Go to Start/Run, and type: "rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\inf\ie.inf" without the quotes.
