Just recently (after installing Windows XP sp2) I have
started to have issues with IE and secondary windows (pop
up windows) hanging on load. They appear blank and do not
ever load. If you press the escape key and then hit f5
they load with no problem. Any ideas?
 
I've had this same problem even before SP2. I just
upgraded to SP2 today and it didn't solve it. I hope
there are answers out there...

From http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. In the Open box, type:

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

3. Click OK, and then click OK again when you receive the following message:

DllRegisterServer in urlmon.dll succeeded.


4. If that doesn't fix it, see this article:

http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers.htm#new_window

5. If you are using WinXP try this:
http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/reg/IE_Default_Browser.reg


You can also try this:

Go to Start/run, and type SFC (msconfig for WinXP).
Choose 'Extract One File From Installation Disk' ("Expand File" for WinXP).
Type oleaut32.dll, not worrying about its location. Then, click Start.

Next to 'Restore From', type in or browse for the file's location, which is
probably in the Win98 (i386 for WinXP) folder of your installation CD-ROM
(typically D:\Win98), or in your Windows\Options\Cabs (Windows\i386 for
WinXP) folder, as the case may be.

Then, next to 'Save File In', enter C:\Windows\System (C:\Windows\System32
for WinXP), and click OK. System File Checker (or msconfig) looks for the
file, saves it as you requested, and then tells you that 'the file has been
successfully extracted'.

You may need to reboot.

OK, registering one of the following files seems to have
worked.

regsvr32 oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 shdocvw.dll
regsvr32 actxprxy.dll
regsvr32 mshtml.dll
regsvr32 pdm32.dll


If I had to guess I would say that it was "mshtml.dll".
