IE appears to stop in a new window target

[Joe]

Just recently I have been expierencing problems with IE
6.0. When a link on a page targets a new window IE appears
to hang up. I can stop the page from loading then refresh
and the page will come up. I found an article that
addressed the issue with Win 98 and Office 2000. The
resolution was to update Office 2000 to SR-1. I did that
but have not corrected the problem.
I am running ...
Win XP Pro SP-1
Athlon 2500
1 Gig ram

About the time this problem showed up I had downloaded
some templates for Access. I did not recieve any errors
while installing these though. Any help would be greatky
appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe

Joe,
You may need to clear your TIF as you may have a corrupt file there.

Close all instances of OE and IE
Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab
Click the "Delete Files" button, when prompted place a check in:
"Delete all offline content", click OK
Click the "Clear History" button, click OK.
Click the Settings button, adjust the TIF size to 50 mb, click OK

[more info]
Possibly your cache folder is corrupt:
