Internet Explorer stopped working on this machine. Opening any website would show the status bar message 'Website Found. Waiting for reply...', but the page never loads. Network access was fine. DNS was working. An alternate browser was working on the same machine. Clearly some module of IE was causing this problem.
Used SysInternals' Process Explorer for Windows to terminate different processes and finally found the bad program. McAfee AntiVirus Suite's McProxy.exe is supposed to filter web pages for bad content and pass onto browser. This process became corrupt for whatever reason. Removed it from startup and IE works fine.
