D Don Varnau Sep 26, 2005 #2 Hi, Repair/reinstall IE: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFAQ.htm >>> #12 318378 - How to Reinstall or Repair Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=318378 But, it's likely that another program is causing this and reinstalling IE won't fix it. If running XP SP2, try IE> Tools> Manage add-ons. Disable add-ons to see if one of them is the culprit. If not using SP2, try one of these free programs: ToolbarCop: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/toolbarcop.htm BHODemon 2.0: http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm Another program, possibly malware, might be causing this.
