Browser window not closing

[Guest]

Hi
I'm using IE 6 on Windows XP Professional, and I have the following problem. Some of the pages that I open cannot be closed( ie by clicking on the "x" button on the top right corner. I have to go to the task manager and manually close the application. This is not the problem with all of the pages. Most of them close when I click on the "x" button.

The second problem is that for these pages that won't close I cant type in anything in the browser address bar

Any suggestions gratefully appreciated

Kind regards
Newto
