Look at Tools, Options, Security. Is OE set to the Restricted Zone.
That will prevent OE from running any scripts or ActiveX in the message.

When replying to some OE6 e-mails, the computer seems to slow down,
editing becomes more difficult (takes more clicks to move the cursor)
and the cursor gets the "jitters". So far, I haven't been able to
trace the problem to a particular sender, e-mail content or whether or
not there are attachments. The problem has been apparent for the last
few weeks.

The problem goes away if I click Format and move the setting from
"Rich Text" to "Plain Text" and back to "Rich Text" again.

Is there a better fix?

Running IE7 and XP Professional - no other problems.
