Help...Windows XP not doing it\'s stuff!

Hi all,

Have a problem with my OS (XP Pro), every time I open a new link in Explorer, the new page opens but does not link to the new site/link.

I have gone into Explorer/tools/internet options/advanced. I have had a play around there for a solution....but no good!

Does any one out there have any ideas......other then going for "red hat" or another OS!

Hope to get a solution soon before I turn the whole system into wheel chock for my Kombi!

Cheers

Can you explain "New Link" do you get your home page ?

I had that once ... i could only ever open one window with IE 🙁

I fixed it by running all the updates then it went away .......

Other suggestion is to ring your isp 🙂

that's an easy problem to fix
change to Apple😀

Besides the simple things, like have you set a slow loading home page (I use about:blank), you might want to check a few things:

Have you installed any IE "helper" apps, like the Google toolbar, Acrobat, etc? These toolbars and helpers are notorious for causing IE to hang.

I would suggest going to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and see if there's any patches for your browser. Apply any and all of them. May help.

If not, go to http://www.microsoft.com/ie/ and download the latest IE 6.0 SP1 setup.
