Freezes when linking

I have XP, 1024 RAM, & IE 6.0.

Within the past week, whenever I click an underlined link - the browser freezes. I have run 3 different ad-aware programs, scanned the disk, defragged, ran antivirus - nothing works.

Any ideas?

Your answer solved the problem. I went to the web site & used their solution of running a .dll & problem solved. Thanks!

Today the problem reappeared. Ran the .dll & it solved the problem again. Do you know why the problem came back?
