Hi all,

I have major pbms with IE6, many a site I used to visit which was perfectly fine now causes me stress and bafflement... javascripts don't work right (simple "click to open" picture is transformed into many click-click- click action before anything happens - when it does happen), some links just won't open (even if I right click and then select 'open link' or 'open link in new window').
Now, the worst case is with this entire website that won't work: my Uni library page loads (or seems to) but there are many items missing, like the search tab is simply not displayed (like other useful tabs) on the page anymore, hence no access to the search form, hence, no access to ressources... (I tried for 3 weeks everyday and thought they were repairing the site until I asked my friend to try from her place, runs XP and IE6 too ... and it worked for her) this really gives me grief ;-) because I guess it can happen with many other useful sites, and I won't know if it comes from my comp of if the site's just gone (sometimes, I get blank pages too... but no error message...).

The pbm with links sorts itself out most of the time with Firefox, as well as the javascript pbm (opening pictures, but then Mozilla won't play the embedded music on the website) but as far as my Uni Library website is concerned, I get the same pbm with Firefox. I have run Spybot several times, keeps sayig my computer's clean. Needless to say a few weeks ago with Win 2000, everything was peeeeer-fect! (until the comp crashed that is... ;-))

I have tried many things, but I don't know what to do next, please, can you help?

Thanks
