Lately, my ie5 has been acting erratically. One of the symptoms is that I cannot search on a web site search address block. For instance, if I want to do a search on eBay, my cursor will not register in the search area and I cannot type in content. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I've run spyware and anti-virus software but my machine is clean. Also, if I try to run the 'repair ie5' from the Systems Tools, I get a message that IE5 cannot be repaired, re-install. If I try to re-install it, I get a message there saying all components are installed or some such message which blocks me from re-installing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
