Personally, I would try uninstalling EI4 then do a clean reinstall.  On the
other hand, although I know the download is huge but I would also recommend
upgrading to IE5.  And if you want a browser that leaves a bunch of crap in
your Windows temp directory, you might even try Netscape (but IMHO IE5 is
much better in terms of not-so-obvious features).
