I did I format of my hard drive, installed xp pro, got the internet working
(after having some difficulty getting the drivers on to my computer, due to
the fact that I didn't have an internet driver), but I got it all working...
I installed hte security updates, then SP2... Before SP2, I was able to
download stuff and click links that opened new windows. Now, whenever I click
anything that opens a new window, or every time I click a download, the
internet explorer window freezes up. I few attempts at minimizing and waiting
about 30 seconds to a minute will unlock it, but it will do the same thing
every time you click on anything to download or open a new window (such as
click the "New Message" here in the newsgroup). The only time I get one of
those SP2 icons at the top ofthe explorer is when its opening a new window,
but I tell it to allow pop-ups, and it STILL fails. Any idea? Anyone?
please....

Oh, yes... and I already did one scan with ad-aware pro. just a few tracking
cookies. I havent been to ANY non-trutable sites, I've only been to google,
in order to get through to windows xp newsgroups, gateway driver downloads
and xp updates.
