here is the problem "ie freezes clicking back button" This is on W2k3 server/IE6 sp1. We have a default home web page. We enter another url jump around there and go to some other webs. Open a word document from a link on one of the web pages. It opens in another ie browser. Close the word document. click back back back.... until just before the original home page. Click back again and it just sits there. No other hidden windows that I can find. Task Manager says it is still running not the expected "not responding". Only solution is to kill IE. I think these web pages all use some sort of security to get to them? thanks _______________________________________________ Doug Stratton CITS Technology Development Analyst Work: 250-704-1861 doug.m.stratton@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:doug.m.stratton@xxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________
