My internet explorer is not keeps logging me out of my yahoo home page. I get
a session time out error like I am not accepting cookies. I have checked and
rechecked all the security settings, cookie setting, etc. Have reset to
default settings numerous times. I have been told my browser is corrupted.
Have tried to uninstall and reinstall, but still am being told that I have a
more current version than the explorer 6. I have previously loaded SP 2 and
all updates are current on my CPU.
Any suggestions on how to fix my corrupted files?

I have already run all spyware checks, had to delete trojans, It initially worked for about two weeks then the problem re-appeared. I have Microsoft antisyware, Spybot, Adware, Windows Onecare all loaded.
