Unable to browse...

[srobin]

Can not bring up pages with IE6. We get "Page Cannot be diisplayed" error
no matter where we try to go. I noticed in the newsgroup that this maybe
caused by spyware, but we can't go anywhere on the 'net to solve the issue.
Any ideas?

thanks,

srobin,
Internet Options | Advanced [tab]
Uncheck: "Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart)"
Click Apply\Ok and restart

If this allows IE to start, see:

Don't forget to re-enable the BHO option (if used)
