Buffer overrun Windows explorer

and what was the cause and the solution? Thanks for any helps

I started to get the same note recently when I am on the net trying to sign
in to an MSN site, I got the problem too about a week ago after my
explorer was updated 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 tried to run windows explorer with no add on and I still got
the same errors. I even reinstalled windows XP twice too.. 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 really 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
Resources"

PS I really do now hate it when they do upgrade the Interent explorer for it
seems now for years too there is always a hard crash following or major
problems after doing so too..
