IE 6 Opens, But Always Displays "Error On Page" In Bottom Status B

.....just before the IE logo/DONE displays as normal. I know there is some
kind of problem, because, for instance, I can't get a certain toolbar to load
anymore (doesn't show / won't load ACTIVEX control).

I've looked all over the place and can't find any information on the "Error
on page" message - including on Microsoft's site.

So...anyone have any ideas on this one?

Thanks!

OK...turned debugging on, and it turns out that it is related to my Alexa
Toolbar, which hasn't been working. Let's put aside all the stuff about
"crapware"....yes, I'm well aware of this...but let's say I want to still use
Alexa. I have a screenshot of the error at breakpoint, but apparently I
can't attach it here like an e-mail attachment. If anyone can help me, I can
send it to your e-mail address. For the time being, the error refers back to
"AlxTB1.dll/CHTML/bootstrap", the mechanism that loads Alexa info on the
toolbar (when it works) when the web page loads.

A Copy/Paste of the debug code at break shows:

// -->
</script>
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function getReg(sKey)
{
return BrowserProxy.System.ReadClientState(sKey);
}
//-->
</script>
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function dout(sMsg)
{
BrowserProxy.OutputDebugMessage(sMsg + "\n");
}
// error handler
//
function window_onerror(sMsg, sUrl, nLine) {
try {
var aErrorData=new Array();
var sScope='';
var sImage="http://log.alexa.com/error.gif?clientversion=7.0&";
var sDelimeter="";
var oImage=new Image();
var i;
// error was caused by browser event?
//
if (window.event) {
window.event.returnValue=true;

and the line

http://log.alexa.com/error.gif?clientversion=7.0&";

was underlined as the where the error occurred:

OBJECT DOESN'T SUPPORT THIS PROPERTY OR METHOD.

I apoligize, as in retrospect, I should bne talking to ALEXA's tech support
on this...but as long as I'm here and posted this, maybe someone will know
what's happening here and how I can fix this.

Thanks so much!

Andy
