I`ve seen this problem before; it was related to the contents of the Temporary Internet Files folder.

Try deleting this entire folder (you`ll have to do it from a command prompt - make sure no Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer windows are open at the time).

e.g. if your Temporary Internet Files folder is located at C:(backslash)Documents and Settings(backslash)scooper(backslash)Local Settings, then do this from a C: prompt -

cd "(backslash)Documents and Settings(backslash)scooper(backslash)Local Settings"

rd /s "Temporary Internet Files"

Obviously, you should replace the (backslash) with a real backslash symbol in the example I quoted above. (This forum doesn`t `do` backslashes.)

The next time you start IE, it should build a new Temporary Internet Files folder from scratch.

(Be very careful with the rd command - make sure you`re deleting the right folder!)
