IE6/IE7 Buttons not firing

[adonis]

I am using a WIN XP Home PC with IE 6. On webpages opened using
internet explorer, the buttons do not work... (e.g. the compose button
when click for yahoo mail, has no effect).... this is not the case with
firefox, where everything works fine... I am totally confused on this..
Tried upgrading IE to latest 7 release... but problem is still not
solved!!..
Any Help??

Tools | Internet Options | Advanced
Uncheck "Enable third-party browsing enhancements". Close IE and Re-open
it.

First thank you very much Mr. Saunders for replying. I tried it, but it
did not work out. I closed and re-opened IE too, after unchecking that
option.
Its like, the compose and check mail buttons in Yahoo mail also dont
work, but google search button works. Its very hard to diffentiate.
facing the problem even with IE7.

1. You might want to refresh your scripting engine:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp
Windows Script 5.6 for Windows 2000 and XP
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...43-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&DisplayLang=en

2. Sometimes there's a corrupt file in the cache and one must go to Tools |
Internet Options and click Delete Files.

2a. Start | Run | Regsvr32 vbscript.dll

2b. Start | Run | Regsvr32 jscript.dll

3. Re-register all DLLs listed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=281679

5a. IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Browsing>Enable third-party browser
extensions (uncheck & reboot).

5b. Find the hijacker that caused 5a to be checked (or if none were checked,
check for hijackware anyway):
