I'm running Internet Explorer 6.0 sp-1 under windows Me.

When accessing Internet sites, multiple icons are placed
in the bottom task/ribbon bar. Many of these are "empty"
and appear to "fly in" from the left or right, but do not
open. Typically, I must right click and close them.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
