Whenever you click on a link for the Wikipedia website, the page comes up
blank on one of our computers running Windows XP and Internet Explorer 6.
What can I do to get the website to display when a link is clicked for it?
 
Hi,
Try clearing the Temporary Internet Files from Internet Options> General>
etc.

See if you have a troublesome browser extension:

[XP SP2] From IE> Tools> Manage add-ons. Disable non-microsoft add-ons to
see if one of them is the culprit.

[Non SP2] Internet Options> Advanced> uncheck "Enable third-party browser
extensions." If either of these helps, you still need to find the
troublesome program, BHO or add-on.

Toolbar Cop from http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/Toolkit.htm can help identify
and remove add-ons, BHOs, etc.

Disable (for diagnostic purposes) programs such as pop-up blockers,
security, toolbars and other add-ons for IE, anti-virus, etc. Take a look at
any program that might be interfering with IE. You may have to reconfigure,
reinstall, or not reinstall, a program.

* Important... Turn on the Windows Firewall (from Control Panel> Windows
Firewall) before disabling a third-party firewall or security suite.

Hope this helps,
Don
