I own a desktop PC running XP Home SP2. I connect via DSL modem. IE 6
SP2 is my web browser.
I am online quite a bit, and browse thru hundreds if not thousands of
web pages every week. I have noticed with this computer, and my previous
one, that occasionally IE will stop loading web sites. The computer doesn't
freeze up, IE just can't load any web sites. This happens maybe once a
week. Usually the only way to get IE to work again is to close it out and
then reopen it. I have the TIF limit set at 5MB, but I've tried various
other limits, all the way up to 2400MB, none of which prevents this glitch.
For security, I use Windows Firewall, Automatic Updates, Avast AV,
Spybot, Ad-Aware, SpywareBlaster and CWShredder. IE privacy setting is at
Medium-High. I only have 3 startup programs running in MSCONFIG, one
related to my anti-virus, two others for my flatbed scanner.
Is there anything that can be done to fix this glitch, or is this a
normal occurrence that other IE users also experience?
