Often, but not always, when I click something (it doesn't
see to matter what) a new ie window opens, but can't find
the site it is looking for, and so opens a nother window
and keeps looking until I close the window. It will then
start allover again... It seems to have started the last
time I updated Windows 2000.
Can anyone help????
 
IE 6.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.
