Encountered before. Lots of times.

Like when you try to open a new tab , it refuses and when u try to open a new page, it wouldnt load. It shall also prevent you from right clicking.

Solution is to restart your computer. or forcefully close ur IE.

Note: This problem happened to me. it might be the same/ different from you problem.

Might be due to a corrupted cache. Clear everything. Download ATF Cleaner

If this doesn't work, do you use other browsers? Like Firefox or Opera. Open it, go and visit any websites. See if it's working.

Please also state your operating system that you are using.

All the while i'm using Firefox & Opera but for certain site i've to use IE, no choice at all.

Mine is XP, my firefox & opera are still working fine.

After downloaded ATF cleaner, at first it work but without any picture loaded from any sites, after that it didn't work again, back to square one.

Hmm... I wonder if IE7 itself is corrupted.

First, download IE7 and save it.

Next, open Add/Remove Programs. Find Windows Internet Explorer 7 and uninstall it. If it's not shown there, try ticking the Show Updates box at the top right hand corner.

After that, restart your computer. Double click on the IE7 installation file that you've downloaded earlier and install it.

If all else fails, download Winsock XP Fix and save it. Double click to run it. Click on Fix. After that, restart your computer.

Ignore above post. It won't help much in fixing your problems.

Hello mayi, sorry for the late update, been busy for the last 2 days.

Last night managed to find another browser which worked equally good & amazingly fast as IE 7, its wonderful, so far so good. Perhaps you'd like to find out more on this browser.

Here is the site : http://www.flock.com

Thanks mayi for all your help & replies, appreciate that, have a nice day.

Oh.. Flock. It's based off Firefox.

Surprisingly it works on those sites that mostly cater for IE browser only.

so far so good, hope it works fine.

This is not a true answer to solving the IE problem.... but as long as you are happy with it I guess its okay :)

FYI, IE sucks, no improvement since it was introduced, never ! Flock is so much better than IE, so far so good.

FYI I am a FireFox user. What I meant was that using Flock does not solve the root problem of your IE having this blackout and page not loading.
