Tony,
You may need to clear your TIF as you may have a corrupt file there.

Close all instances of OE and IE
Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab
Click the "Delete Files" button, when prompted place a check in:
"Delete all offline content", click OK
Click the "Clear History" button, click OK.
Click the Settings button, adjust the TIF size to 50 mb, click OK

[more info]
Possibly your cache folder is corrupt:

I'm having a strangely similar problem with my IE6 in XP-home. I get a
message that says "page cannot be found" when I know I should be able to
access it. My ISP said it must be a browser issue because he had no problem
using IE6sp1 while I've got IE6sp2. He said to download the sp1, but when I
tried I got a message saying a "newer version of IE is already installed and
installation cannot continue". I tried the suggestions below, but still got
the message page not found. I would appreciate any help!

Thanx,

Dee
