Joel,
This is probably being caused by another program- possibly adware, spyware,
parasite.
Download and run run CWShredder from
http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip
CWShredder is only about 125 KB so it could be downloaded from another
machine onto a floppy disk if necessary.

If CWShredder isn't the cure, try Ad-aware and Spybot S&D:
See:
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm
Also note the security tips on that page.

Other possibilities: http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_8.htm#urlmon

This urlmon.dll error is starting to appear more frequently.
Let me know if one if those programs fixes things for you.

Regards,
Don
