Lately my IE6 for XP SP2 is frequently freezing up. I have to close the
program and reopen frequently.

All other programs open are fine.

What should I do?

What are you doing when this happens?
It could be a malware infection.

I am having the same problem as these folks. It started today, and I have done a system restore to a week ago. I am still having the problems. I have done both a spyware (Defender) and virus (McAfee) scan and nothing has been identified. Any help would be appreciated
 
Also having the same problem and can't figure out what else to do. I just
realized that Netscape seems to work just fine, but... still nothing working
for more than a few minutes with internet explorer 6...
 
I think I discovered the issue: Comcast Toolbar. I don't understand why the
issue came up all of a sudden, since I have had the toolbar installed for
more than a month. Since I uninstalled the toolbar, the problem has
disappeared.
 
Do you have any other toolbars? My colleague had the same problem.
Uninstalling the UPromise toolbar did the trick.
 
No I don't have UPromise either, have Verizon/Yahoo tool bar. In the
possible fixes on the error reporting page was the suggestion to update the
Yahoo toolbar as there was a fix for it, I did that along with the other
suggestions in the error reporting page But no help yet. I have had no
problems for 8 months with this set-up and now all the sudden I am freezing
up constanly.
