When I click on view>source, I get a blank notepad window in return.
This happens with every Internet Explorer window.
Can any one tell me the solution plz? I have Windows XP and IE 6.

This is one of the major bugs in IE. Dude...check out that there IS an empty folder on tour desktop called "NOTEPAD". It will be hidden or even visible. Delete it. Then u can view the source.

I am 100% sure that there is an empty NOTEPAD folder(Not a notepad Document) on your desktop. Go to Tools>folder Options> Unhide Protected System Files and Folders.
then you'll find a folder on your desktop..
Me really sure dude....

Theres no need of it dude...Thats what I'm telling.
i'm 1000000% sure that there is an empty NOTEPAD "FOLDER". It cud also be with the System Attribute, so, ven if you tey to unhide hidden files you wont be able to c the folder until you unhide even the system files & folders.

Dude..
on your desktop, there is a FOLDER called notepad, NOT DOCUMENT. Delete the FOLDER CALLED NOTEPAD. There is no file or a document.

It's simple

Just change your default HTML Editor settings in TOOLS/INTERNET OPTIONS/PROGRAMS.

It may also be a bug
