I'm having the exact same problem with a Windows 2000 server. The Control
panel will not open and Internet Explorer 6 locks up when trying to load
(and when attempting Windows updates). Having to try and update using
Firefox. No success. Running Windows Server 2000 SP3.

How can I update without IE6 and get them to install? (Would SP4 solve this?
If so, how to get?)
