IE6 No Longer Works

[Lady Deadra]

Greetings All!

I'm running XP Home & IE6 died today. Can't access anything - either typing
or favorite. I know I'm connected because I'm also running FireFox - have
been & have had no problems. Both were running fine until today. IE "can't
find server."

Registry prob?

TIA

**Won't upgrade to IE7 - been there,done that - too buggy/crash prone. Hell
no, I won't go **

Define "no longer works" and "can't access anything." Post any errors in
their entirety.

Use Firefox.

May be simple.

It may be a settings issue.
The first thing I do is check Tools-Internet Options-Connections
tab-LAN Settings and ensure "Use a proxy server...." is not checked.
(Mine resets occasionally, particularly after a power break or reset)

Not sure if this will work, but...

In IE6, click on Tools, click on Internet Options, click on Advanced and
click on Reset.

I use Firefox because it is more secure, faster and stable. Also open source.

Use Firefox.

Firefox will give your cat warts. If you don't have a cat, you may be okay.
