Hope you will find some solution in that pile of URL's. <s>
A good site with links to various MSKB pages. Most I have already submitted
to you, but there may still be a few.

I suppose you tried the workaround about removing a patch that might have
been installed?
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, remove the KB823559 security patch, restart
your computer, install Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1, and then
reinstall the KB823559 security patch.
As for XP... I still have sitting here safely sealed in it's original
packaged box, an upgrade for XP Pro. I am likely to keep it that way for
some time to come. <g> Running W98se with 1 GB Sdram (two - 512 MB sticks),
P4 2.0 GHz processor, with a meager 40 GB HD-D doesn't slow me down very
much. True, I cannot run the latest versions of Adobe Photoshop (nor can I
afford it anyway). But I can have both Outlook2002 Office XP, OE6, 10
IEwindows, 2 applications, windows explorer, some Mp3 playing, and a couple
of other things happening, and resources will drop (very low 15 - 30%) if
I've been running for hours and hours, but no crashes.
However, just recently a friend had upgraded a P3 433Mhz, 10 GB from W98se
to XP pro, and has had lots of problems. They know tons more than I on
fdisk, formatting, partitioning and what-not, along with many more years
than my 2 years time of experience. "It ain't broke...." . :-))
Anyway... keep us posted.
