Internet Explorer 6 address bar freezes

[biz]

Hello,

I have version 6.0.2.800.1106 of Internet Explorer. When I try typing the
URL in in the Address bar, Microsoft Internet Explorer does not go to the
URL. In fact it freezes & the Application does not respond so I have to end
it & launch another Microsoft Internet Explorer browser.

Please advise as soon as you can. Thanks.

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to

analysis, not here.**

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
