IE .DLL Error

I keep getting this error intermittently:

module MSVCRT.DLL at 019f:780154a7.

I tried reloading IE, but problem still exists. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Rob,
This is probably being caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware,
parasite- or maybe a legitimate program)

Work through the solutions (CWShredder, Ad-aware, Spybot) at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm Also note the security tips on that
page.

Additional information at:
The Parasite Fight http://www.aumha.org/a/quickfix.htm
Bugs, Glitches & Stuffups: http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/Darnit.htm

If not caused by malware, consider disabling (for diagnostic purposes)
legitimate programs running in the background which might be interacting
with IE- security, antivirus, ad-blockers, toolbars & other add-ons, etc.
You may have to uninstall then reinstall, or not reinstall, a program.

Hope this helps,

I had the same problem and after nights of research here is how I fixed the problem. I am by no means knowledgeable about computers so you can copy what I did at your own risk, but it worked for me. I am running Windows 98 and the version of the dll file msvcrt was out of date. I downloaded a new one from this site…the file called msvcrt.dll:
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/index.shtml
I could not move the old msvcrt.dll file from the windows\system file while Windows was running. Therefore, I restarted my computer and held down the control key to avoid starting windows and instead got the ms-dos prompt. I moved my old msvcrt.dll file out of the C:\windows\system directory to someplace safe so I could put it back if things went wrong. I then moved the new msvcrt.dll file into the windows system file. Maybe there is an easier way to accomplish this, but it obviously eluded me. In case your ms-dos is rusty, the commands I used from the c prompt were
move c:\windows\system\msvcrt.dll c:\downloa
move c:\unzipped\msvcrt\msvcrt.dll c:\windows\syste
I can surf again
FYI: the msvcrt.dll file I had was Version 6.10.8293.0 and the Version I downloaded and installed was 6.00.8397.0.
Hope this info helps and good luck
