I am not sure what the exact item fix was - but when I applied Win 2000 SP 4 -- that particular issue was occur only occasionally instead of the frequent "error" dialog. I also don't like clutter and being the multitasker that I am, I use NetCaptor which is a single application but tabs the varied sites one might visit instead of multiple copies of MSIE running. MyIE2 is another candidate. Both use MSIE technology and the internet options setting.... I won't ever run Netscape or Opera. Netscape is a resource hog and Opera just doesn't appeal to me.

Single System running W2K SP3 w/ DSL connection. When activating Explorer 6.0 SP1, I suddenly get a message indicating that Explorer has encountered an error and has created an error log. The dialog box gives me the option to send or not send this log to Microsoft. In either case I am given the option to restart Explorer. Regardless of whether or not I chose to send the log to MS, Explorer shuts down. If I have chosen not to restart I am simply left at a desktop. If I have chosen to restart, Explorer attempts to find the home page but I am once again given the same dialog box. Ran Norton Scan and found nothing. Actually reinstalled Explorer completely from a download patch. No help. Thinking it must be in the User Profile, I created a new user for the system with Admin rights to get a new profile. No help. I have now reinstalled Explorer several times. I attempted to remove Explorer completely through Add/Remove but it only allows you to repair or go back to previous installation. Tried both. No Help. I know my connection works fine because I can log in to the Server at the Office using Terminal Services. In addition Outlook Express works fine. In fact I am using it now. There are no other signs of corruption meaning all other applications are running at normal speed, etc. I am really confused on this one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks * Nick
