Please use complete and correct spelling. This is not SMS messaging and you
should spell correctly.

IE 6 SP1 is supposed to be better since it is supposed to have the fxes that
IE 6 didi not have. You can try the revert back to IE 6 by selecting the
Control Panel --> Add /Remove Programs -- > Internet Explorer .... --->
Remove/Return to older version.

However, if you are use XP, you can not revert back

If you are having serious problems with IE6, then IE6 is not likely at
fault. It is more likely that there is something on your PC that is
destabililizing it, and until you fix this something your PC will remain
untrustworthy.

The first step is to check for viruses and spyware.

IE6 SP1 is better than IE6.

First eliminate any spyware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated with the program's update function
before every use, even when just downloaded. There's also a lot more to do
than just those two programs. CWShredder is also available here:
