out of ideas

using IE6 and win2k pro, In the last few hours everytime I try to start IE6 all I get is an attempt at sending an error report. I tried running adaware, spybot and norton antivirus with no results. I then tried an lsp fix, and ran the system file checker (sfc /scannow). I've had no luck so far and I'm completely stumped because if I right-click my computer and use the explore option, I can use IE no problems (which is what i'm doing now to write this).... outlook express and messanger work fine as well.

any ideas?
