XPSP2/IE experts, SQUEEK!

[DenDen]

Due to the events of last nights "wierd" experiences here, I killed firefox. Only problem is, I went to firefox because my IE doesn't work. (I'm using AOHell right now, don't ask, it's an advertising tool! )

 

WindowsXP-SP2

 

When clicking links that open new windows, a new window opens, and just sits there. Does not matter if it's just a "_blank" command, or a Javascript call. Pop-up blocker is turned off. I have reinstalled SP2. (There's a 2 hour fiasco you should try!)

 

Note that IE inside AOHell works fine.

 

Any and all help appreciated

Hmm, almost makes me want to buy a mac. LOL

I've heard from a few others that the sp2 for windows xp has caused them problems and shouldn't be installed unless you are having probs before installing. Not sure how true that is as i never installed it myself. You might try uninstalling it and see what happens. Good luck

I really don't think is SP2, I think it may be AOL. I did my anual "scortched earth" routing last month, and it's only been happening on this new install. Worked fine before hand. That's what I get for not leaving well-enough alone.
