I use winME and recently upgraded to IE6. Since then the IE always froze, sometime in surfing and sometimes in downloading. I had to press ctl-alt-del but then it did not respond to keyboard or mouse.
I uninstalled back to IE5 and my machine could not boot - Shell32.dll problem. It costed me ages to sort it out to boot up winME. But now my MS Office asked me to upgrade IE becuase it could not start. I had to reinstall IE6 but the problem came back.
What should I do?

OK.
I had similiar probs, Empty your Temp folder and your Recycle bin, Delete all of your Cache, (temp internet files).
Reboot. If it still locks up try going into Add/Remove programs, find Internet Explorer 6 and tools, Click remove and choose the repair option. Reboot again.
I had this happen twice, when i had'nt bothered scanning and Fragging for a while,
So do that too. Good luck.
