My IE does not open on a few sites

What's wrong?

[henry0]

IE is 6.0.2900.2180 version
I do have SP2 on XP pro
The whole thing is 100% kept updated
But I cannot find what I can do to view
Orbitz
And LiteCommerce sites

Although it indeed works fine with NN, FF and Opera

I tried to open as much as possible the security doors
But regardless nothing's working!

I am clueless :)

Any inputs?

That's strange, usually it's the other way around. Have you tried those sites on another windows machine and/or clearing all stored web data? Anyone else see this (I can't test as I have Mac and Linux in front of me right now ;) )?

Thanks physics,
Sorry was not able to answer earlier
I had to be out of my office most of the day.

Update:
I even tried adding quicktime plugin (which I hate doing) but as expected no changes!

I cannot think of anything...

Well, a little bit more: I did remove G popup blocker
but again no luck!

IM having a similar problem, can you still see your version number for IE?

[henry0]

Yes I do,
Version
Cipher
etc...

Okay wild left field here but it will take only a second to try. When was the last time you deleted your cache? IE often acts odd that way. Also does this happen only on the secure (https) version of those sites or on any?

Thanks
I often empty the temp
did it fresh again.. No change

and No it is not tied to HTTPS

the dif in between Orbitz and litecom lies in popups
Orbitz has a ton of those, litecom well, is lite!

even with accepting popups on G toolbar and on IE as per their new popup control does not change anything

so I do not think it is tied with popups
neither is a flash problem.
I miss wins 98 that had an IE repair.
