LL mentioned cookies, and IE6 has an additional tab under Tools--> Internet Options called Privacy that controls how cookies are handled. The Edit button at the bottom of the tab can be used to set cookie policy for individual websites. You might try allowing all cookies from seiv.pbw.cc.

Also, what OS are you using, IF? Depending on the OS, somewhere under File Types there's an option to always download or always launch a particular file type. You may need to go in there and set .jsp's to always open (though that could be dangerous on other sites), or at least not automatically try to save.

Crud. Hmm... if you clear your temporary internet files again, does the site work properly? If it does, you can set IE to automatically clear out temporary internet files when you close it, under Internet Options--> Advanced under the Security heading. 'Course, this may be a pain if you have a slow internet connection....

If all else fails, you could try reinstalling IE. Something that's worked for me for strange IE-related problems is to refresh all components of IE. Run IE setup, choose a custom install, then select all components, even the ones in bold that IE claims to not need to be updated.

No, clearing the browser Cache again doesn't work. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Well, phooey. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif If reinstall or reverting to your previous Version of IE don't work, then I'm stumped. ('Course, we could always try Technet.)

I didn't try reinstalling yet. I have PBW games to play now, after all. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Fyron,

I'm bumping this up from a while ago because it seems at least one person has found a solution. The people who have reported this: are any of you running Proxomitron or similar popup-blocking proxy programs?

I turned Proxomitron off, and still had the problem.

Edit:
Ack. I turned it off before, and it didnt help. I just turned it odd now, and it helped. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Guess I will have to set it to ignore the PBW site. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Then it works fine. This is really strange because before I reinstalled the OS it had proxomitron running for months without this problem.

I told IE not to use a proxy for seiv.pbw.cc, and now it works just fine. But don't you go putting any ads on PBW. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
