I have been having a problem with Earthlink and IE6 as
well. Earthlink has tried to be helpful, but I think
they are at a loss.

I have Windows XP and just this week have had problems
where I cannot browse the internet. If I know the
website address I can go to it, but I cannot search for a
topic. I also have a Norton Personal Firewall and
Antivirus on. It started working again after I
reinstalled the Firewall, but I tried that again and it
still doesn't work. Any ideas?
 
Had this same problem, had to go into norton internet
security and turn off the Firewall, then I could browse
just fine. Must be something within the firewall program
that is stopping the browsing.
 
I've had the same problem and received NO help from either Norton or
Earthlink. I finally started fiddling with some settings (this was
occurring on 2 machines in our home office) and what worked on one machine
didn't work on my machine-so I did a complete reinstall of XP Home, plus
hours of reinstalling all the updates and patches, then reset my Norton by
REMOVING Ad Blocking. THAT is what worked for me. None of the other
changes I made worked. It seems Norton was seeing the search pages as Ads
and was blocking the results. .....................

Hope this helps.
