I have tried to repair the IE Explorer by going to
Add/Remove Programs tool in Control Panel and reboted the
machine on completion, the same problem persists when I
click either the window explorer icon in the task bar or
in the start/program.

Should I reinstall the IE 6.0 ?

Please help

In fact, I have checked with PC-cllin 2004 and Adware S2
and running its add-ons including LSP Explorer and VX2
Cleaner and found that it was clean. Would the LSP
explorer cause the problem?

Now when I clicked Start/Settings/Control Panel , I have

Any advice? Please help

To start in Safe Mode:
-Start the computer and hold down the CTRL key till the Windows 98 Startup menu
(boot menu) appears.
-Use the arrow keys to select "Safe Mode" and press Enter.

Restart in Ms-Dos Mode
From C:\ (type and press Enter after each command)

cd\windows
smartdrv
deltree tempor~1
deltree history
deltree temp

Restart (Ctrl-Alt-Del)

Note: The paths above are used for examples only, the
exact location may vary on
different systems.
If your Temporary Internet Files, History and Temp
folders are in different
locations than C:\Windows, you must change the paths to
the folders in the commands
above, to match the locations on your machine.

I haven't start the machine in safe mode as the problem
did not occur so frequently as before after repairing
the
IE 6.0 by Start/Control Panel/Inernet Setting...

But the problem still occur when I right-click the IE
icon
and click on the general tab to clear the history, it
takes more than i minunte to finish and sometimes it in
fact did not clear all the records in history.

Please help

Sorry for the delay getting back to you......does the
problem still occur if you
start in Safe Mode, or when you do a clean boot?

To start in Safe Mode:
-Start the computer and hold down the CTRL key till
the
Windows 98 Startup menu
(boot menu) appears.
-Use the arrow keys to select "Safe Mode" and press
Enter.

To do a clean boot:

In fact, I have checked with PC-cllin 2004 and
Adware S2
and running its add-ons including LSP Explorer and
VX2
Cleaner and found that it was clean. Would the LSP
explorer cause the problem?

Now when I clicked Start/Settings/Control Panel , I
have
to wait about more than 1.5 minutes for the Control
Panel
window starting. And sometimes it even hangs !!

Any advice? Please help

I have tried to repair the IE Explorer by going
to
Add/Remove Programs tool in Control Panel and
reboted
the
machine on completion, the same problem persists
when I
click either the window explorer icon in the
task bar
or
in the start/program.

Should I reinstall the IE 6.0 ?

Please help

Try running a repair on Internet Explorer:

Click StartRun, type the following and click
Enter,
for
IE6x:
RUNDLL32 SETUPWBV.DLL,IE6Maintenance

Choose the Repair option, and continue.

If the repair says it cannot complete, or it
does
not
fix the problem, reinstall
Internet Explorer:
