 | |  | | One easy way to test the "searchpage.html":
1. Start Windows XP in safe mode: to do that, you need to press F8 when you restart it, and you will get a text-mode menu.
2. Rename C:\searchpage.html to other name, say "search.html" (Then IE won't be able to use that file as default start/search page)
3. Restart Windows XP in normal mode. If IE works fine, then it can be sure that "searchpage.html" is the bad guy. Otherwise please post the content under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" and "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run". There must be some bad program hiding behind. |  |  |  |  |
