All the problems seem to have started when I upgraded to IE6 I work online and pretty much tax my system to the max with up to 6 windows open at once. Since I upgraded, alot of times when I click a link on a website, I'll get an error message box popping up asking if I want to send a report and/or restart IE. Also when I click a link in an email, alot of times it will just lock up. It doesn't happen constantly, but it does happen alot. Is this just an IE6 glitch? And can it be fixed? Thanks.

I have IE6 and do not have these problems with IE, but my email will lock up but it is from my virus program, all so when I browse IE will freeze, but it is usually the web server that is the problem, unless my browser cache is full or the settings in IE are wrong. Go to Tools-Options and Clear your cache files including Offline files in IE and go to the Security Tab in Options to and click each Icon and set it to the Default and click Apply, then the Advanced Tab and set it to the Default setting. Also go to the Privacy Tab and accept all Cookies. Next in Outlook do not keep the Inbox to full and go to the Deleted folder and Empty it, then open the Sent Folder, go to View, Select All, which will highlight all the sent items, then right click on them and choose Delete. You need to reset IE options above everytime it is updated and you need to clean the above stuff regularly or it will freeze up on you.
