Internet Explorer 6 Freezes Computer

I just had to reinstall all my programs on a new hard
drive. Microsoft Internet Explorer frequently freezes
and does not respond to Ctrl+Alt+Delete. When I manually
turn the computer off and then on again the check disk
function finds errors in the Microsoft Internet temporary
files.

How can I fix this? It is very annoying!

Have you cleaned out the TIF yet?
Start | Settings | Control Panel | Internet Options | Under Temporary Files
| Settings | View Files | Edit | Select All then hit delete key

Close the window and return to the Setting dialog box and click OK. On the
General tab, at the History area, click on the Clear History button, then
click OK.

It is possible you may have parasites, spy or malware on your system causing
the problem. Download, install, update the programs to be sure they have the
latest definitions, then run the programs below. They are free and very
effective.
Be sure to run both SpyBot and Adaware, as what one does not detect the
other may. Follow the directions carefully:

SpyBot Search & Destroy: Free

or

AdAware: Free
