Here is how to edit a page:

You are only a 4 hour old wp.com blogger. The tutorial will get you oriented to using this wordpress.com platform.

IE6.0 is the worst browser version Microsoft ever put out. They no longer support it and WordPress.com does not support it either. See here please to download supported browsers and versions http://browsehappy.com

You should consider upgrading to something more recent, directly from the Microsoft site. Alternatively, you could switch to another browser. Judging by your posts, I'd say it'd be easier for you to upgrade IE. Go to microsoft.com and look for Internet Explorer.

Other browser names that you might or might not recognize are Firefox and Chrome (from Google). If you don't recognize these, don't worry. Whichever browser you are using, check your menu bar for a Help menu with an "About..." on it. Click that and tell us what you see for name of program and version number.

Some versions of IE are not very friendly with wp. I am Mac only but have seen something about disabling "compatibility mode" on IE in some versions. You might try that?
