Terry R. and Twayne came to my rescue but it has turned out that I gave
incorrect info. It is correct that at times I seem to spend a great deal of
effort chasing my active page and bringing it back, but when I tried to
duplicate the situation as I described it in my posting it didn't work as I
described. When I experience this the most is in the morning when I am
opening Outlook Express as well as my various web based email accounts.
Usually, not only am I opening those accounts, many times I am also following
links in those messages as well as building a document or email message.
Apparently my problems are all IE8 based - not XP. Thanks for your patience -
and not beating me up as I deserved. K.

Nah, "stuff" happens! I'd say your problems are more OE based as IE8
doesn't have OE provided with it.

You have of course, tried a REstart, right?

Is this all happening right after you start (boot) the computer? If so, it
might be that the computer is still busy building up its store of background
tasks and things might tend to fail. Try giving it another minute or so
after the disk accesses stop.

Other than that, it'd take more details; those were just WAGs.

HTH,

Twayne
 
Thanks Twayne. While this happens mostly during morning startup because that
is when I am trying to catch up to everything all at once, thru more testing
it seems to happen anytime I go after any web based info. That would seem to
suggest Terry R.'s idea is probably what I am experiencing - the last request
it is given the highest priority. Wish there was a toggle switch. Thanks
again for considering and responding to my post. K.
