IE 6 is freezing

Suddenly I cannot complete any questions using IE 6. The screen freezes. My
cursor becomes a line and nothing works on the page. My alternate browser
works fine. Any thoughts? David

Hi David :)

Try the following and see if it helps:

IE Freezes



Internet Explorer freezes

You might also be able to browse and download programs from the address
bar of Windows Explorer.


This is possibly being caused by third party programs-
malware/parasites.

From Control Panel> Internet Options> Advanced> uncheck "Enable third
party browser extensions." That should allow IE to work.
You should re-enable browser extensions after the cleanup.

and then to clean your system:

If these steps do not resolve your problem, or you need help with the above,
please post back to this thread with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
