When I'm in an IE window typing something it will "kick me out", like I
clicked outside of the window.  The top bar turns light colored indicating
that I'm not "in" that window.  This happens a lot when I'm not clicking
anywhere, just typing in a form or something.  AAAHH..it ...

Yahoo and a few other websites are displaying banner ads (Walmart -
this week) on their main pages that appear almost full screen for a

this type of web page animation through IE settings?

How do I configure XP Home to bypass the sign-on/password window?  I have
tried every option in User Accounts and have had no positive results. I have

I'm currently using Interet Explorer 6. Recently in an attempt to clean out
my pc of a worm, I think I deleted some files which are necessary for my
internet to work properly. Now whenever I click on a link on the internet

Weirdly my net hangs after a while so that only one browser window
(iexplorer 6) works. If I  have the exactly same url on two browser windows,

How do I restore IE as default browser?  "Internet Explorer should check..."

I'm am not to familiar the function of caches; and have three questions
about it.
1) Where can I find personal educational information about "caches" from a
reputable website? (tried searching MS.com and can't find anything?)

I've recently reinstalled Windows Xp (SP2) and when I've tried to change the
search settings I just can't find anything else besides MSN. To make it clear:
- I click on the 'Search' button in IE and then click on Customize and then
Autosearch settings - there is no other option ...

Whenever I download a large file (or any file), my IE6 browser first seems
to dl it to a temp file in the cache, and then copies it to the directory

the folder I want it in without the cache and temp files ...

Disabling the activex in IE seems to solve the problem with Hotmail freezing
but it creates problems with other web pages that require it.  Is there a
REG file that could be placed on the desktop that could be run prior to

I took someone's advice on one of these MS NGS and removed ZoneAlarm 5 from
my PC/w WXP-homeSP2 and the IE problems ceased.  I did have the XP firewall

with WXP SP2 & ZoneAlarm5.

Ok here's the jist of it. I can access webpages for a few minutes after I
