Internet explorer new window does not work properly

Internet explorer new window does not work properly. If I click on a link and choose to open it in another window or the link is for a pop up new window for internet explorer it opens a new IE window but does not start downloading the page. However if I click on stop and refresh the page will download. If any one can help me how to fix this? My computer was running fine few days ago. It just started to do this for a couple of days now.

im having exactly the same problem.  I posted the same message as you and no one 
replied. I've been to the M$ website looking for any fixes but haven't found any. 
i recently installed SP1. I wonder if this has anything to do with it.

	See if this will work:
Go to control panel, folder options, file types tab

Scroll down to the  URL:Hypertext Transfer Protocols, click advanced, click edit 
and make sure the following is in the application used to perform action box:

”C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe” -nohome

The same applies for URL:Gopher

DDE should be set to:  “%1”,,-1,0,,,,
Application should say:  IExplore
DDE application not running should be blank
Topic should be:    WWW_OpenURL 

Run each line individually.  
Start – Run then type
regsvr32 Urlmon.dll 
regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll 
regsvr32 Shell32.dll 
regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 Actxprxy.dll
 regsvr32 Mshtml.dll
If this does not work  try System File Checker
Start – Run then type
sfc  /scannow (note the space) have your XP CD handy this time as you may 
be prompted for it.


Good Luck,
---MJB---

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I have been at a stand still for 3 days now and finally found your reply. I was considering reinstalling service pack 2 which, thank goodness, I was petrified to do. I am back in business!
