IE suddenly shuts down

When I access a website like myspace and view a friend's page, after awhile
it will just shut down without an error message. I'll try to re-access a
different page, and after awhile, it will do it again. At other times,
viewing other websites, it will give me an error message such as... "internet
explorer is experiencing problems and has to shut down..." and I send the
problem to the server. I have the updated patch for IE 6.0, but don't know
what else to do.

I operate on Microsoft XP Home Edition, Internet Explorer v6.0.

Cumbersome and complicated, perhaps, worth the effort? Yes.
Post back the *URL* where you posted your log, *not* the entire log.

Good luck!
