Hello,

Recently I had to install IE6 (+ SP1) to use a financial program.
And now when on a web site I click on a link to download a file a blank page
pops up and nothing more happens.
There are exceptions. For example I could download a little disk zipped
catalog browser (Catfish).
But usually I am stucked.

My OS is WIN98 SE.
I am using an antivirus (Norton) and a firewall (Outpost) and had no
problems with IE5.

What can I do ?
Thanks or your help.

Henri.
 
If it is only .exe files, then read on and see if this is relevant:
You may have an invalid plugin.
Netscape-Style Plug-ins Do Not Work After Upgrading Internet Explorer
[Q303401]

Remove the plugin with Regedit.exe
Start-Run-Regedit.exe
Navigate down to this key and remove it, after exporting it as a
normal safety precaution.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Plugins\Extension\.exe

If that key exists, then you will see what plugin has been installed.
The key does not normally exist.
