Focus changes every time I open new browser

[Philip]

When I open a new instance of the browser, and invariably
start to type an address, the focus switches away from
the edit box. I then click back on the edit box to set
focus back to it. Now, when I start to type again, it
will sometimes switch focus away a second time. This
happens no matter if the first edit box i am typing in is
the address box or any other edit box(like a password
edit box). It has become very annoying

Any ideas??

IE 6.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
