IE 6.0.2800 hangs when not in use

[Ryan]

Here's a puzzler. Using Wimdows ME on a Dell Dimension,
with IE 6.0 2800.1106, the browser hangs if all browser
applications are shut down. In other words, as long as I
have a browser box on (either minimized or not) there is
no problem. but if i accidentally close all IE apps, then
I must re boot to get on the net again
Thanks in advance.
