Hello Everybody,
I faced similar problems and i just managed to solve it ...
For some weird reason the CONTENT.IE5 folder in the Temporary Internet files dissapeared.
That made it impossible to "open" files directly from the browser (IE6)
but I had to save them locally to view them.
I tried to copy the CONTENT.IE5 folder from other users in the PC but no success.
The way I managed to pull this thrugh is strange but it work.
In IE6 you go for Tools>Internet options>Temporary Files>Settings>move folder
If you relocate it in the same folder it sould be in
"C:\Documents and Settings\name of current user\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\" the Folder CONTENT.IE5 and related subfolders is regenerated and all things
are fine!
Hope this helps ...
