IE6 Problems 1

[SRotblat]

Ok so my IE6 has two problems

1) links which open new windows will not work, you click and nothing happens. Links which dont open new windows work fine.

2) Windows Update site wont work. I click scan for updates and it just sits at 0% for ever (over night, or even in the 10 hours it takes me to go to work and come home).

I used bcastner's "78% of the time fix" and got problem 1 working....but not srue if its still tired into the 2nd problem or not...

Scan stops at 0%:
