IE6 Hanging Up (on each new page) FIX!

WIDESPREAD PROBLEM IN XP

"The screen loads, the status bar says "Done" and the status bar progress area is filled in almost full (97-99%) and sits there for about 15-30 seconds. I can't scroll the screen, click on any links, leave, move on to the next page, go back or anything, until the progress bar fills up and clears."

HERE IS THE FIX!:
go into IE, Tools/Internet Options/Advanced and under "Browsing"
catagory, uncheck "EnableThird Party Browser Extensions" (requires restart)
IE 6 works great now
