Hi Michael - Try this (Trust me - I did understand that you're talking about
OE ).

Go to Start|Run and enter "regsvr32 /i urlmon.dll" (without the quotes).
After you get a Success message, re-boot. If that doesn't work, then check
out the following article and do the additional steps outlined there:

You Cannot Open New Internet Explorer Window or Nothing Happens After You

Also see these articles: http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/answers/27.html
and, Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pack 1 may display a blank Web page
after you select Auto-Select encoding http://support.microsoft.com/kb/870863

If you're on XP your can try MVP Ramesh's .reg fix here which sometimes can
help:

Had the same problem this morning and fixed it by clearing browser cache as
suggested in this NG. Not sure why that worked but it did.
