I am running MS XP and running IE 6.0 when I open a web page the buttom that appears in the bottom tool bar for that page flashes orange. And I have to click on (anywhere) the web page itself to be able to do anything to the web page (scroll ect.) If I have multiple windows open and click the buttons on the tool bar for the appropriate web page the page does not open the button just turns orange and flashes. if I click again it stops flashing and another click opens the page but I then have to click the web page to manipulate it. Also the buttons seem to have lost all right click functions so I can't right click and close them. Hope that makes sense.   Andrew Clarke (Aclarke) advanced member Username: Aclarke Post Number: 217 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Tuesday, February 11, 2003 - 01:15 am:    Ken, I hoped it made sense too. But it just didn't... Actually on second read it did make a little more sense. Are you having this problem with any other programs or just IE? I have 2 suggestions: 1. Use Mozilla. 2. Reinstall IE.   Michael Noe (Noee) Senior Member Username: Noee Post Number: 428 Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Tuesday, February 11, 2003 - 07:35 am:    http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com   Ken Tipton (Irish_nv) Advanced member Username: Irish_nv Post Number: 69 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Tuesday, February 11, 2003 - 12:22 pm:    actually it was all pograms not just IE as I thought. don't know what the prob. was.
