I found this problem a few days earlier than 1/30/04 and
it disappeared on 2/1/04. I am still looking for the
answer just for my peace of mind.

It doesn't look like some automatic update interrupt IE
either, because I disabled any automatic updates and my
firewall was set to block anything except IE.

It was so weird problem. I checked everything: hardware,
software, virus, internet traffics, system logs, and the
like, but didn't find any answer. I am very eager to know
what caused it.

Huge thanks to anyone who has the answer.

Andy
