I still have not resolved the problem with my browser. It still closes down when I go to some site.
Today I found an associated problem with OE, if I double click the title in a newsgroup the message opens as per it should but on doing it to a second message the browser closes down and I'm returned to the desk top. This happens every time I try opening a 2nd message.
I have checked on offending web pages for XSL Transform, ensured that only JIT compiler box is selected, found that if I deselect 3rd party proxy everything is OK but am unable to find any associated Malware and ran sfc/scannow.
Constantly rerunning Spybot and Adaware after ensuring they are up to date.
OS XP Home and IE6.
What haven't I done?? other than not got rid of the problem!!
