Hi,
Delete the Temporary Internet Files folder- it may be corrupted. A new one
will be created on restart. Set the size of the new folder to 50-60 MB. See
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm
Did you try this?

security.
BTW... MVPs and others who provide help in the microsoft.public newsgroups
are volunteers who do not work for Microsoft.
