Ive dowloaded the latest XP and Explorere service packs
but still get Explorer crashes caused by clicking on
links. This is repeatable, eg if try to read a story on
www.timesonline.co.uk clicking the link causes the
explorer window to disapar immediately without any errors
or diagnostics. This only happens on a sub-set of links -
but is always repeatable. Also I can navigate around
www.timesonline.co.uk site menus without a problem until
I try to read a story in full.
