Buffer Overrun Detected

When I log on, I get an error message with a header: Microsoft Visual C++
Runtime Library

The error reads: Buffer Overrun Detected!
Program C:\Windows\Explorer.exe
A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's
internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be
terminated.

Can someone explain (in simple English please) what has happened and how I
can fix my PC?

Buffer overrun Windows iexplorer

I have the same problem now for a whole week after I upgraded my Internet
explorer, I really do hate those Internet explorer's updates too now, anyway
my computer works fine even the Internet explorer, but the same Internet
explorer crashes only when I try to sign in on some of my Internet sites, MSN
included.

I use the computer about ten hours per day for years too. I ran all the
diagnostics, memory checks, virus and spyware checkers as well, and I talked
to two professional computer store tech service technicians now about it
too.. and no help or solution.. It is a reallly big pain!!!

Here is a great site but it was no use to me here...

Re Diagnose XP - A Windows XP Diagnostic Guide

" Diagnosing System problems can be very complicated and time consuming.
There are no simple solutions.

Windows XP systems should never Lock-up (freeze), display Blue Screen Stop
Errors or Randomly Reboot. These are all warning signs something is wrong or
misconfigured with your system.

Unless you are a highly trained, experienced PC Technician do not skip any
of the following steps.

Step 1 - AntiVirus
Step 2 - AntiSpyware
Step 3 - Windows Update
Step 4 - Drivers
Step 5 - Harddrive
Step 6 - Data Recovery
Step 7 - Memory
Step 8 - System
Step 9 - Internet
Advanced

Did you ever get an answer to your IE Buffer Overrun Detected error? I have
the same problem, but only when I try to log in to my Hotmail account.
Thanks.
