IE6 opens blank (empty) windows
You probably have a broken entry in file associations.
Go to my computer, view/folder options/file types.
Scroll down to the URL:Hypertext Transfer Protocols, click edit twice and make sure the following is in the application used to perform action box:
\"C:\\PROGRAM FILES\\INTERNET EXPLORER\\iexplore.exe\" -nohome
The same applies for URL:Gopher
DDE should be set to: \"%1\",,-1,0,,,,
Application should say: IExplore
DDE application not running should be blank
Topic should be: WWW_OpenURL
