I have seen this before, do you have acrobat reader installed and if so did
you upgrade to the latest and leave V3.0 reader there.
It took me awhile to find this, scratched my heade for a few hours until I
went back through everything that I had done since it last worked... I
uninstalled both these and everything worked fine again... Might not be the
same problem, but it might be worth checking out.

I was an IE fan until something broke my IE and it won't view source, it
won't save, so I can't use it. I paid Ms $42 for a support call to tell me
how to reinstall IE and the short answer is you can't. Even when you
reinstall windows, it just refuses to overwrite the IE files because
they're already there. Won't upgrade to the newest service pack because
that's already done. You can't download the IE files, only a setup
program that downloads teh components it thinks you need. And that won't
overwrite corrupted parts of IE either. SO I'm stuffed, and Microsoft
can't tell me how to fix it, short of reformatting my hard drive and
reinstalling all my apps. (Last time I did that it took me 4 days to get
everything back into order again)
So, I still like IE, but I hate th eway it's such an integral part of the
system that you can't tinker with it.
Despite myself, I have become a user of NN6, and it's starting to grow on
me. There are a lot of things on the web that don't work with it, but far
less than I thought woul be the case.
