freezes after using IE6
Hello -
My Windows ME computer, almost always freezes after I have been on the internet using IE6. Everything functions fine when ising IE, however, once I close the program and try to open any other program or click on the start button, then the computer freezes. I am using Spybot, Stinger, CW Shredder, AdWare and Norton AV 2004, and the problem still exists after running scans with all of these. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. |

freezes after using IE6
Try disabling NAV, and see if that helps - if it does, then install
something that actually works with ME and try again! -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's or http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/f.../Mar27pmvp.asp "C.C." wrote in message ...

I disabled NAV, but the problem still occurs.
Any other possibilities? Thanks.

OK - try a Repair of IE -
Reboot to Safe Mode Go to Add/Remove Programs and try a repair of Internet Explorer from there. Go to the entry for 'Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP1 and Internet Tools' in Add/Remove Programs Click on Remove - and click on Repair on the window that pops up Reboot on request to Normal Mode If the above entry isn't there, you first need to uninstall all the patches applied, then do the repair, then reapply the patches The patches are listed in Add/Remove under the names 'Internet Explorer Qxxxxxx' highlight, click Remove - reboot if requested. Repeat until the MSIE6SP1 entry appears - then repair as above.

Try running a process viewer and see what's really running on your machine -
if nothing untoward, then it may simply be a symptom of either a hardware fault, or a misapplied setting....... empty your TIF and Offline content, clean your Swapfile from DOS, make sure that Windows is managing your Virtual Memory, and uninstall any third-party memory managers. check that in SYSTEM.INI, there are no entries in the [vcache] section unless you have more than 512MB RAM installed -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's wrote in message ...
