Hi Folks,

I am running XP w/SP3.... Of late the I.E. browser hangs and then freezes. Mostly on Facebook but not exclusively. This causes the need for repetative hard boots. Have scanned the disc,defragged.

Still it freezes. I am also getting false ,"Scripting" error messages...

Also getting this message repetatively.."Internet Explorer cannot download yql from analytics.query.yahoo.com"

"Internet Explorer was not able to open this interent site The requested site is either un-available or cannot be found" ...This message appears over the page as it loads anyway..????

Also getting false scripting error messages..."Out of memory on line ....."

Sure would appreciate some assistance

Thanks,
Ken
