Hi,

I've had this problem for awhile. When I try to post on MSN Groups nothing happens for ages and then it just comes up "page cannot be displayed" and my message does not get posted.

I tried installing the patch for IE6 which claims to fix this problem but it kept saying that I needed to install SP1 for it to run. Well I already had SP1 and despite downloading it several times just to be sure it still kept telling me I need sp1 even though I very definitely had it!

I got frustrated and tried to unistall IE6 and downgrade back to 5.5 but soon figured that (worse than a virus in my opinion) it cannot be uninstalled completely. So I went through the IE6 setup process in the add remove programs and put 6 back. Now whenever I try to download the fix for the problem it tells me IE6 has to be installed for the patch to work..I have got IE6 installed!!! This is soooooooo frustrating as if it wasn't installed I wouldn't be here on this site would I!

I'm at a complete loss now this just seems to get sillier and sillier.

Please can anyone help????????

Thank you in advance

Jayne
