Spell checker and My pics

Today I have noticed two persistent problems that appear to have developed over night. Neither were there yesterday and I haven't noticed them ever before.
1. When the spell checker is finished, the normal dialog box that usually comes up gets stuck behind the actual spell checker window and the spell checker stays on. I can get around this by clicking on that dialog box behind the spell checker. Once I do that it, the completed dialog box appears on top and the other spell check window goes away. It's kind of weird though that it's doing it all day today - even after I have logged in/out and restarted my computer. As you can see in the screen shot I'm using IE. This happens in all forums.

2. Whenever I click on "My pics" the new window that opens says I'm not logged in. I have to log in again in that new window that appears which causes a problem. The main index browser that I originally logged into becomes logged out - also my cookies don't save when it does that, so it resets all of the posts that I have read, making it look like I haven't read em yet. Here's a screen shot of me logged in and the window popping up saying I'm not logged in:

Is this just me or my browser? Anyone else notice either of these issues? I can still browse OK so it's not an emergency or anything.. I'll be fine either way.  Thanks.

I'm using IE6 on WinXP pro and am experiencing neither of those problems.

That's weird. I'm on windows 98 though. I tried clearing all of the browser files like cookies, temp internet files etc.
Right now I'm having general hardware problems with my good computer so I'm forced to use this old box until I get the other one repaired. On the newer one I have XP and a newer browser version. Been using this computer for weeks now - it sucks.
I also do a bit of c++ programming myself and have a self modified and compiled browser on that computer, which has lots of customized things and is probably superior to this one.
It could just be due to my old outdated setup, so hopefully when I get that other computer back up and running I won't have any problems. Maybe it's rejecting some kind of changes that otherwise would work with newer software.
I was just wondering though because neither of these problems were there yesterday.
i can still post and read though, so I'm happy.
