Hiya Nferno666

My first suggestion here would be to restore the default settings of your browser, along with clearing all the history, temp files and cache stores. For the default restore click on tools, internet options, then the advanced tab. You should see the "Restore Defaults" option there.

My only other suggestion might be to reinstall IE6 if the above doesn't work for you

Hope this helps

~Peace

Yeah, it maybe just a setting in IE that is causing the problem,....
