IE 6.0 CONSTANT crash

[Guest]

I can not keep my IE 6.0 browswer up. It will load, and
then it automatically closes out. I had to download
Netscape browser in order to use the Internet. It came with
my computer, but I no longer have warranty; what are my
options for correcting this situation?

Check for virus and adware

Housecall Online Scan
http://housecall.antivirus.com
or
Symantec Security Check
http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym

SpyBot S&D searches your harddisk for so-called spy- or adbots;

or
Adaware

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
