Re: IE6 Hangs

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Hi Steve,
It didn't like that at all. First thing it did was give me an error message:
The instruction at "0x77279295" referenced memory at "0x7d4b2e20". The
memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the program.
When I opened IE again, it immediately said it could not find website.
When I went back to automatically detect LAN settings it worked like it did
before: with MSN it says found website: waiting for reply == but there is not
reply.
If I go to Dell.com for example it partially loads the site. However, I can
go to Sun's Java site without any difficulty.
Any other ideas?

Hi, try the gateway address you know ... port number 8080 ( default )

Hi Steve,
That is most helpful, but I may need a little help here.
How do I determine the address and port number for the proxy server?
If the proxy server is my gateway using ICS then I know that address but I
don't know which port it uses. Is there some command I can use to find out?
I tried "ping" but that didn't give me a port number.
Thanks,

Hi H.Adams,

I have experienced similar behavaviour from a fresh install of IE SP2, (
many websites were accessible, some just start to build and then hang with
nothing displayed e.g. otn.oracle.com ) the solution in my case was to define
a local proxy server ...
The problem has been solved ...
Browser -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> Lan Settings -> Use a
proxy server for your lan ( enter host and port address of proxy server )
and otn.oracle.com can be displayed

I am having the same problem. I usually get "page not found" after it sits
for a while trying to download the webpage. All other network connections
are fine, and is it just the communications in IE and Outlook stops as well
(server not found errors). Can you drop to a command window and ping
yahoo.com successfully. I find that I can, and that the problem is just
within IE and outlook.

I am having the same problems. I will continue to research the problem and
will keep you posted if I find anything helpful.

I have 4 computers on my home network, 1 running Win XP Home SP2, 1
running
Win XP Pro SP2, and two running Win XP Entertainment Center, and all
protected with MS firewall and Norton or McAfee antivirus, that started
hanging. The remaining 5 computers run OK. There is no problem
connecting
to other computers on the network, and on two of the computers there is
access to other internet sites other than MS. I cannot download updates
to
Windows of McAfee but I can download updates to Norton AV 2005. On some
of
the computers IE says website found, but never loads it, and others
partially
load MSN.com but won't complete the task and then hang.
I have installed Netscape to see if IE 6 was flawed but it did the same
thing.
Other computers on the network are configured the same and do not have
the
problem.
Any advice?
