IE Windows load, but than freeze and "appear" to load more

[thindery]

Well it happened just today. If i go to a website, it
loads completely, but instead of stop loading, it appears
to freeze, with the green load progess at the bottom
stopped at 100%, and than I can't click anywhere on the
page for about twenty seconds. It doesn't happen on
every page, I'd say about 9/10 though.

Any ideas what caused the problem and how to fix it?

Try this-it seems to be flavour problem of the month at the moment .
Go to IE/Tools/Internet Options/Advanced and uncheck ."Enable Third Party
Browser Extensions" . click APPLY then OK and shut IE then reopen it .
Everything should work Ok after that

Who knows why this worked, but it did.

From http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. In the Open box, type:

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

3. Click OK, and then click OK again when you receive the following message:

DllRegisterServer in urlmon.dll succeeded.


4. If that doesn't fix it, see this article:

You can also try this:

Go to Start/run, and type SFC (SFC /SCANNOW for Win2K or WinXP).
Choose 'Extract One File From Installation Disk'.
Type oleaut32.dll, not worrying about its location. Then, click Start.

Next to 'Restore From', type in or browse for the file's location, which is
probably in the Win98 folder of your installation CD-ROM (typically
D:\Win98), or in your Windows\Options\Cabs folder, as the case may be.

Then, next to 'Save File In', enter C:\Windows\System, and click OK. System
File Checker looks for the file, saves it as you requested, and then tells
you that 'the file has been successfully extracted'.

You may need to reboot.

Thanks, I had the IE problem as well and turning off the third party option worked. Thanks for the information.

What if you want to use the third party toolbars??

Then all you did was fix the symptom. To fix the cause 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 needs to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
