    I operate a Imac flat 15 in panel Mac Os 10.3.3. Using the installed IE 5.2
    I Had no problem until lately. My other browsers Netscape, Safari, Aol
    have worked normally. When attempting to use IE as my browser it loads
    but
    fail with a blank page and the loading remark says connecting to 127.0.0.1
    No further loading occurs. After moments Error message: Attempting to
    load
    accessing URL http://www.refdesk.com / failed. Trying to reload fails.
    Occassionally on restart IE may load. All if irrespective of time of day.
    My Access is cable isp server optonline.com.
    I then uninstalled IE5 manually as directed according to MS knowledge
    article 192852. I trashed as directed but did not empty trash and went in
    to download and correctly install IE 5.2.3 . Unfortunately same problem .
    Other browsers working fine.
    On the Mac preferences for TCP/IP. FTP proxy( although trying web proxy
    http
    did no good} Ethernet ID as supplied The entourage proxy addresses
    127.0.0.1 default as with the Mac preferences.
    My I Mac OS 10.3.3 IE v 5.2 upgraded to v 5.2.2 fails to load many times.
    At other times it loads normally.
     It does not occur with Netscape or safari
    I use cable specifically Optonline, which functions normally except in
    reference to theabove description. I used disk utility and corrected all
    permissions. However the disk verify and disk repair buttons were not
    active.
    After I upgraded IE I simply trashed the 5.2 fil

    How to solve the problem????
