Search window Error message

[Bob Hahn]

Out of the blue seamingly, I suddenly get an error
message when I click on
the search icon, on the IE 6 icon bar. It has never done
this before. I
always get a split screen and in the left hand split a
place to type in a
search word. Now I get this message:

You are not authorized to view this page

page. You can click Search to look for information on
the Internet.

HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden
Internet Explorer

I have no idea what happened, I'm the only person who
uses my Windows XP
system. I am so called system administrator and I don't
have a network. I simply have a Dell computer and I'm
using IE 6.0.2800.1106 xpsp 2.030422-1633 on an Windows
XP home edition.

How can I fix this?
I've already tried " System Restore (to the previous
day), and resetting all
my IE settings to "default". I also rebooted my system.
Nothing has worked.

Thank you for your help

I think the MSN search page is down.
