My Internet Explorer 6 is behaving weird, I will explain.

When I have visited previous websites some times my BACK button is greyed
out. I know this happens in some websites, and it is normal, but when I visit
a website that I usually have visited before and it does have a previous page
and the BACK button always worked, it bothers me that it doesn't work now.
This happens in almost 88% of the sites I visit and it's awful. Also the
previous page should show on the taskbar when I open a new window, but it
disapear. No 1, 2 or 3 pages in taskbar. They are gone. Please help me so I
can surf the Internet happy as I was.
Thank you. Claudio.
 
Hi Claudio :-)

You don't mention the version of Windows that you are using, but, try the
following and see if it will help:

Back Button not working or grayed out

First, go to Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab>
Reset to the "Default" settings
Do the same thing with the Security settings.

Close IE and reopen. See if that resolves the problem. If so, then you can
slowly reapply the settings that you know you changed before one by one to
see which one, if any, may have caused the problem. :

If still no joy, then:

Cannot Navigate Back to Previous Web Page

"Page has expired" error when using the Back button

Hope this helps.
