Just today when I start IE6 with all the newest patches, it will display a page and as long as I click links I can surf the internet. As soon as I try to access or enter a term to search for on - IE freezes up and I see Not Responding in the title bar. It seems any time I try to do a search this happens. I have all the newest patches for XP and IE6. My Outlook works fine. I can still download files from Microsoft and they will install. The issue seems to be when I try to enter anything to search for on any site. when I bring up task manager, I also see two instances of IE6 showing not responding when I have only opened one and can only see one on the screen and taskbar. any suggestions - I have burned about three hours. I did go back to a restore from last week and everything works except IE. What in the world???
