IE 6 will not start

[Guest]

Receive a message after starting IE has encountered a problem and needs to
close. The error signature inifo is as follows:

App name: iexplorer.exe
appver: 6.0.2800.1106
Modname:d3el32.dll
modver: 0.0.0.0
Offset:00007dc1

Any advice on how to repair?

Hi,
This DLL, d3el32.dll, appears to be connected to CWS (CoolWebSearch-
malware) Ad-aware followed by CWShredder may take care of it. But, it would
be an excellent idea to post a HijackThis log to one of the forums where HT
logs are analyzed.

(Somewhat old information on CWS at
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html )

See that modver? That is a good clue that the module is not likely
from Microsoft. Also, the Modname isn't one I recognize and
the DLL Help Database doesn't know of it either.

Try a search? Apparently there is known malware associated
with this name.

(Google web search for
d3el32.dll
)


Aumha.org don't seem to know about this but I would start here anyway:

Good luck
