IE6 on XP keeps hanging

[Guest]

Internet Explorer keeps hanging. I'm not sure that there's anything specific
that I'm doing that causes it, it just frequently stops responding. Task
Manager tells me that it's not responding and I have to end the task (which
can be a pain).

My Windows XP Home is fully up to date.

I run AVG anti-spy every day.

I have Ad-aware, Spybot S&D, Spyware Blaster Yahoo Anti-Spy and Microsoft
Anti-Spy installed and Kerio Firewall.

None of these show any viruses or spyware.

Is it anything to do with SP2? I don't remember having any of these
problems before that was upgraded.

I've looked back loads of replies on here and they all say about spyware,
but I'm pretty certain I don't have any.

Thanks
