Any idea what is going on with my Internet Explorer?
 

I had my system restored and now IE6 is doing a bunch of weird stuff on all the password protected pages. It either won't let me login (the login info is correct) or if I can login and click a link that should open a new window, the new window just opens up the login page asking for the password again - never allowing me to see the subpages I'm after.

I assume it's some browser setting causing this but I haven't been able to figure out what setting that is. Any ideas?

I'm not looking to use other browsers so please don't suggest FF etc, I want to fix IE.

TIA

tools -> internet options -> security -> set to medium or medium low and try to log in again.

thanks, it's defaulting to medium, but when I set it to anything lower it just resets itself to medium :helpme

Do you have IE7 as well?

Sounds like a cookies issue.

Spunky: no, only IE6
TomCruise: I've messed around with cookie settings, including setting it to allow all cookies on the sites in question, it still does this :(

block active X, its EVIL!!
