Given that you're on XP, you really can't, because IE6 is integrated into the OS (that's why XP is so prone to viruses). You could, however, upgrade to IE7, and see if that accomplishes anything.

That's not a bad idea.
But I might give upon this one. I tend to be a bit conservative when messing with computers. I would hate to have to pay someone money to sort out something I broke. After all it works fine at the moment. Thanks anyway though.

To be honest, upgrading to IE7 wouldn't be a bad idea anyway, simply as it is far more secure than the swiss-cheese that is IE6.

I'll stick with Firefox as my web browser, I don't use IE at all anymore.

You still use it for updating purposes though.
