    Hi

    What Service Pack is your Windows also once you have told us the answer to DutchMarco's questions?

    In part it could be that you need to update, IE6 is old and IE8 is better, as is Firefox or Opera, also do update to latest versions of Java and Flash, these can help online apps as in google maps etc.

    I just read youtube no longer supports IE 6 and google is phasing out support too.

    Alot of the websites are phasing out support .


    Also my java and flash is very old that does not help.Well bing maps needs new plugs ins.
