I run XP Professional and have downloaded the XP service
pack 2 but now keep getting screen freezes and need to re
boot to clear it- any ideas why?
 
Screen freezes with IE are most commonly caused by video drivers that need
updating. Go to the web site of your video card manufacturer and get the
latest drivers for your card. As a work around, try turning down your
hardware acceleration, color depth, and/or screen resolution. If these
work, then new drivers are in order.

Other causes are scripting engines that need reinstalled or updated:

Or the Java VM:
