Well, I am very sure, that I installed all available (security) patches
for my Windows XP Professional and the Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
(checked windowsupdate.com a few minutes ago). Please check that you
clicked the link and not did copy and paste (see Donnies reply and my
response).

So perhaps there is a difference between Microsoft Windows 2000 and
XP...
