I have windows Me and internet explore 6. I have a cable
modem and the connection is good. I constantly have
trouble accessing websites. I type in a website and my
search freezes. I check internet explore and get the
message "Windows Internet Exporer [Not responding]." What
does this mean" How can I fix the problem? If it's my
browser, how do I repair it? Thanks.
 
IE 6.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions
