Hey there:
I'm not sure this will help, but I've often found it does in cases where IE behaves strangely.
Delete your cache
Delete your history
Delete cookies (if you don't care, otherwise try the other steps first before doing this)
Close IE
Reboot your system (not reqd if W2K-WXP)
Try now...
If that doesn't work, you might also try changing your security settings to medium, but this is a longshot, imho.
