IE Hangs

[frank]

When I browse onto somewhere that requires a new window to
appear (such as a Search), IE6.0 hangs for about a minute.
Can anyone help?

Does the new window eventually load?

Check your system for "hijackware":

Run these tools in the following order with nothing else running in
background:

1. CWShredder (fix all found)

2. Ad-Aware (fix all found)

3. Spybot (RTFM but generally fix everything in red)

Important: You *must* seek updates for Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc., before each
and every use, even "right out of the box". But even they can't catch
everything, 24/7. When all else fails, HijackThis
(http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe) is the preferred
tool to use. It will help you to both identify and remove any
hijackware/spyware. **Post your files to http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ or
http://forum.aumha.org/viewforum.php?f=30 for expert analysis, not here.**

[Alternate download pages for many of the above tools may be found at

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?

No the new window does not eventually load. Explorer does
begin to respond after a few minutes but goes to the
original window.

What actually happens?

Does the new page open in your old page or are you returned to the old page
and the new page does not show up?

This page is devoted to "New Window" issues.
