>>Just tried the right click to save as and received the same error.>>
to me this is very baffling because by right clicking you MUST get a context
menu. I too have internet explorer version 6.0 updated and right clicking i
get following menu
(1)back/forward/save background as/set as background/copybackground/set as
desk top item/paste----ALL THESE ITEMS ARE GREYED OUT
(2)SELECT ALL/CREATE SHORTCUT/ADD TO
FAVOURITES/VIEWSOURCE/ENCODING/PRINT/REFRESH/PROPERTIES---all these options
are available
(3)NOTE-- I just discovered that internet explorer version 6.0 does not have
a" save as " on right clicking!!
<<< I do not know how to disable NAV TEMPORARILY; not sure what this is.>>>
sorry--NAV= norton anti virus
<<< Also not sure what the Web/FTF scan is.>>>
FTP= FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL. what this essentially means is instead of
completly
disabling NAV you disable only selective features for a particular need and
is a much better suggestion than mine.
I have been able to access both the links given by you with internet
explorer 6.0. and saved in notepad the first page.

I saw an article in WXPNews which may address this. It involved uninstalling
IPv6. This protocol update has not been universally implemented and if a
given
web site has done so, but your ISP has not, it is possible that the
procedure
for uninstalling it may correct your problem.
The following is from a MS Knowledge Base article

SYMPTOMS
Windows XP stop responding when connected to the Internet, After you
successfully installed Advanced Networking Pack on Windows XP.
CAUSE
It cause the Advanced Networking Pack included IPv6 Protocol. After the
installation, IPv6 protocol and related services were started by default.
RESOLUTION
To solve the problem immediately, Please follow the steps that listed below.
1.Use Administrator account to logon Windows XP. Go to Control Panel, and
then open Network Connection. Right Click the network interface card that
connected to the internet. Click properties. In the network interface card
properties select IPv6 and then press Uninstall to remove IPv6 Protocol on
the network interface card. Restart the computer.
2. Use Administrator account to logon Windows XP, Go to Control Panel, and
then open Administrative Tools. Open Services. Disable and Stop the IPv6
related services.
This may or may not address your situation, so it's FWIW.
HTH.
