just recently my IE wont connect to anything. The status
bar will fill half way then not move another inch, but the
page will continue to act as if its connecting (ie the
little icon will continue to move as if loading).

I have set and reset everything to default.

Also I have tried to uninstall and reinstall it but nothing
 
You have not mentioned your OS. If it's W2K then you have
the facility to repair in Add/Remove programs. You
mentioned that you have tried to uninstall and reinstall.
If you have XP or W2K the surest way to reinstall is by
changing the value in the registry and downloading IE6 SP1
Just in case it is one of the OSs then here is the
procedure: Start, Run, type in regedit, click OK Then
locate the following site

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software, Microsoft, Installed
Components, 44BBA848-CC51-11CF-AAFA-00AA00B6015C

Click on IsInstalled click on Edit , then Modify and
change the value to 0
Download IE6 SP1 at this site

Reboot the machine. Hope it works for you.
