Ugraded to IE 6. At some point lost the General option
under TOOLS/OPTIONS. Have re-upgraded with no success on
this point.

How to get it back?
 
Get and run these programs (if you test after each one you can stop when the
problem is gone):
Ad-Aware:

Once installed make sure to update via online before scanning!
and
SpyBot - Search & Destroy -

Once installed make sure to update via online before scanning!
and
BHO Demon: http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/bhod/

Until the problem is solved.

If these don't fix it try
Restore All Tabs under Internet Options

David,
I too have lost tabs. I lost my General and Programs
tabs. I lost them sometime last night 8-31-03 / 9-01-03.
Also someone altered my home page (normally blank) to I
believe xyzeasy.com. I was so upset I deleted the URL
before I wrote it down on paper, duh!!!! I emailed
Microsoft about it. I too re-downloaded and installed to
no avail. Sickos in this world David, pure and simple
dumb stupid perverted sickos who seek pleasure in
disrupting other peoples lives. Please stay in touch.

Reset the Internet Explorer tabs and remove all the browser restrictions.
Download the script from:

Remove IE Restrictions & Restore Missing tabs

Also, refer Fix 268 from Kelly's site:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Restore All tabs in IE and Removes the ** Internet Options ** Restrictions
as well


** The cause may be due to a spyware. Download Ad-Aware from
www.lavasoftusa.com, scan the system and eliminate the malware products.
Re-apply the above fix if necessary.
