IE 6 shuts down with no error msg on some sites

[Chris]

IE 6.0 SP1 will just shut down without any error messege
when I visit certain sites. It will start to open the
page then all the sudden it shuts off with no warning.
AOL and Netscape do the same thing when going to those
same sites. They just shut off.

Java issue?

Tools/internet options/advanced/Microsoft VM
....only tick the JIT compiler box and leave the Java boxes un checked
(default)

Parasite?
IE 6.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit is with these
tools.
