I'm sorry if this is getting annoying, but I promise this is pure
coincidence. lol. Anyways, I have IE 6 and it's giving me problems today. I
can't seem to open a link in a new window, whether it'd be manually or the
link automatically opens the page up. The browser doesn't freeze up or
anything, it just doesn't display anything. Clicking on links that open up,
I found the error to be that a module or something is missing. I have
Windows XP home (there's the problem right there. lol) and am considering
downgrading, if I ever knew how. lol. For now, I just installed Netscape but
it's really hard and extremely annoying to download all of their plugins to
view embedded java, video, audio, and such. Can anyone help?

LoL I can tell you how to downgrade if you want to know.. but yeah XP is
something that is going to cause a lot of problems.. the person who made the
site has a lot of control over what the site does now with the new web
system Microsoft is doing.. including active X controls which could be
really deadly ;). Give me a buzz if you have an older windows CD and I can
tell you how to remove XP.

Umm, unless you installed the bare minimum version of Netscape 6.2, it
should *come* with Java, and other basic plugins...

Well, apparently, I can't play Yahoo Towers. Maybe it's just applets. lol.

Well, I don't want to downgrade to regular Windows, but I'd enjoy going down
to IE 5 or at least back to the IE6 settings I had yesterday when I CAN open
up links in new windows. lol.

Well you can't really downgrade with IE :\ I'd say go with netscape. Maybe
load a registry from yesterday.

You mean UPgrading to Windows 98? ;)
Or consider Windows 2000, rather (and linux as well while you're at it :) )

NS 6.1 is a REAL webbrowser. IE 6 is not.
