IE6 problem

[Joe Dunn]

I am finding that virtually every time I use IE6 in my
recently purchased computer running XP Pro SP1 that it
crashes and I get the "send error message" dialogue box
and whenever I click on this to send or not, all copies of
IE6 close immediately. Does anybody know the source and
fix for this bug?

When you click the Internet Explorer icon, window may flash a second and =
quits. Or, it may show an Error-Reporting dialog. This may be due to a =
malware Browser Helper Object which causes Internet Explorer process to =
terminate. If you see the Error-Reporting dialog, click "to see what =
data this report contains" and identify the Module Name causing this =
error. In most cases, it may be the spyware DLL. Therefore, reinstalling =
Internet Explorer [in case of a spyware DLL] may not help.=20

To test with: Disable third-party browser extensions in Internet=20
Explorer
1. Click Start, Run, and type inetcpl.cpl. [or control inetcpl.cpl]
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Under Browsing, clear the Enable third-party browser extensions=20
(requires restart) check box.
4. Restart Internet Explorer.

I suggest you try Mozilla or FireFox (http://www.mozilla.org/)
