When I download a web-page I cannot scroll down anymore until the
complete page is loaded (all images). If I do the areas are not
redrawn properly (just copies parts of the text, looks terrible, as if
the redraw function does not work). Could this be related to avast!
web-scanning, or is it an IE problem (no problem on another PC here).

Yes, that bugs me too, And I don't have Avast. The rendering engine of your
browser is what's doing the re-drawing...that's just the way browsers work.

What I do is press the 'stop' button (the Esc key in Internet Explorer) if I
don't feel like waiting anymore. Often what's left to load is an advertising
banner, which I don't care about anyway. And yes, the rest of the page
sometimes looks terrible when I do this, because it could be missing key
bits of formatting code that haven't downloaded yet.

On the other hand, if all the components of the web page have already
downloaded, and the browser is just figuring out how to assemble the page,
pressing the 'stop' button won't make any difference.

One way to find out would be to install another browser and see what it
does at the same site. I'd recommend Firefox. It is also a modern,
secure browser.
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/

Further, IE has always seemed to have a problem if you don't empty the
cache and offline temporary files all the time. This isn't necessary
with Firefox.

Given all of your recent problems, Lars-Erik (http://snipurl.com/l54p), I'm
led to believe it's a problem specific to your machine.

Possibly, but since it is not possible to uninstall and reinstall IE6
(thank you MS) and I don't want to reinstall XP, well, what do I do
:-)

Now this is odd ... I just looked at the page listed in your sig,
http://home.chello.no/~larse/ and on it you claim to be a "Microsoft
Certified Professional [for] Windows NT Server & Workstation".

You seem to be asking newbie questions, not questions that an MVP would
already know all the answers to. Care to explain? :-)

It *is* possible to uninstall/reinstall IE in WinXP:

How to reinstall or repair Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in Windows
XP:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318378

If uninstalling/reinstalling IE will resolve your problems, I don't know.

If yours is a retail version of WinXP, you can contact MS Product Support
Services via pss@microsoft.com or via the options here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...Fdefault.a sp

If yours is an OEM version of WinXP, contact the machine's manufacturer.

As an MCP, I might presume that you know all of the above but I thought I'd
post in to be sure. Best of luck.

I know a lot of WinXP, but these problems can not be solved searching
the registry and checking all settings (not even Microsoft Norway has
any answers, they calim they don't know how the ActiveX download
process works, what DLLs are involved, and says "just reinstall").

BTW: The MCPS course is very little registry and fault-searching,
it's most users/files/rights stuff (by far not tech enough :-)

Sigh: I wish it was just possible to reinstall IE6 (without doing a
XP repair install, and without having to uninstall XP SP2 and stuff)

NOT on XP SP2. Then you need to uninstall SP2 (and that fails, some
uninstall files has been damaged or removed for some reason...)

Tried with MS Norway. Only same suggestions that I tried and
"reinstall XP" or "try a repair install". No knowledge about what DLLs
could be harmed or what registry settings could affect this (if they
had known that I could have copied those easily from a working PC).
