If you have Norton anything, disable it. If you have Yahoo Companion,
uninstall it, if you have any ad or popup blockers for any kind, disable
them. If you have any 3rd party toolbars or add-on, disable or uninstall
them. Tests again.

Please keep us informed of what your FP response it as well. It may help us
help you on this end too.
