ie6 address bar button

[Anonymous]

i have win2k and suddenly one day my ie decides to lockup.
Whenever I click the button to see recent links next to
the "Go" button and next to the address bar ie locks up.
Are there any possible solutions to this? I have already
removed ie as a windows component in Add/Remove Programs
as well as installing ie6 setup.

Thanks in advance

The History button?

Try deleteting the History folder and index.dat:

sorry, i wasn't clear
I meant the button to bring down the drop down box within
the address bar. That is when my ie locks up

Thanks

Try clearing the history. If not deleting the Index.dat might help (refer the site I mentioned)
