Hi,

For some dang reason when I click in a hyperlink (Ive noticed this in IE AND in Outlook express) the application/window freezes up. If I leave it for a long time the window might pop up but usually I end task it before it has a chance. Now I had this problem before and I had to format my drive (hardware issues) but now it has returned. Windows is on a new drive and the old windows drive is now my secondary drive which still has the windows files on it. Any suggestions would be VERY much appreciated!

Thanks
Jeff

What are your system specs, including the version of Windows you're running?

While I'm certainly not on the level of redduc900 in winXP expertise, but could it be some form of spyware/malware causing you problems?

Make sure you're clean:
