On my Win XP Pro system, my other browsers, FF and Netscape, open fine, but
IE6 won't open at all?
Any ideas?
Thanks, CMA

Hi Jan:
Thanks for the links but I don't think I have a hijack, just a corruped
IE6.

Hi cmar
If you have already checked for system thoroughly with all programs fully
updated, run them in Safe Mode with Hidden Files enabled and know for sure
that your machine is free of any scumware, then you might try a repair.
However, be aware that doing a repair will not remove any scumware, and if
it does exist on your system at the time of the repair, it may make matters
worse. You do not mention the version of Windows you are using so I'll post
the information for repairing both 2000 and XP: If those are not the
versions you are using please post back.
How To Repair Windows 2000

You will need to uninstall any post IE6-SP1 Win2K SPs before you
uninstall/reinstall IE. You will also have to go to the Windows Update and
reinstall all the necessary updates after the reinstall.

Simplest repair for XPsp2 is Run... iexplore.exe /rereg
If that's not enough there are additional registrations given
in KB831429 for W2K which apply equally to XP. (e.g. NT5x)
also..
