With XP SP2, do not forget to look closely at the information bar right below the address line.

You may also want to consider an alternate browser like Mozilla Firefox at this link:

In many folks eyes, Firefox is much better than IE!

I keep IE only for MS updates!

If you have loaded Service Pack 2 for XP, MS has tightened up the security quite a bit. They now have a banner bar right below the address line that gives information if you click on the bar. You might need to load Active X and it may indicate it is blocking or keeping something from happening.

Its a little hard for me to explain, but this banner appears to be new to SP2.
