Hey!
Internet Explorer 6 will always come up with the message (Not
Responding), and also explorer will not let me play games and chat on certain
sites such as yahoo,shockwave ect. I have done everything I know to do, I've
tried so many different things, if someone could help me.... would get
grateful!!!! I have XP with SP2.

The same thing happened to me after I ran Norton Anti-Virus. I must have
accidentally changed some firewall settings. Anyways, Norton wouldn't let me
change the settings. I got fed up and then uninstalled Norton. Now it works
perfectly!
What was the last thing you did before you noticed it wasn't working?

Hey!
I have McAfee....I do not remember what I was doing before it
happened..I'm clueless, I downloaded Ad-Aware SE and I downloaded
HijackThis...Do you have anyother idea on what I could do?? I don't even
understand why it won't let me play yahoo... on the status bar, the link that
I click (room) will come up but at the end of the link is always #stayhere...
And it's never been like that. Yahoo Help of course didn't help me, I've
never had this happen...
