Are you using IE or Yahoo Browser?

Any difference if you disable both Yahoo Companion and Google Toolbar via IE Tools > Manage add-ons? ...if you uninstall both of them then reboot?

Well, I went to the page and read it.
It said that a "workaround" would be to uncheck the "use http 1.1" radio
button, in the advanced options.
It said to do it from the "tools" menu, in the browser; but the browser
won't do anything except load google and yahoo buttons, and spin it's
little corner gif.
So, I did it from the desktop Launch IE right-click+properties menu.
It didn't change anything.
If that was the problem, then the workaround would handle it, wouldn't it.
IE won't load a page.
It just sits there with a "busy" cursor for as long as you want to look
at it.
