IE doesn't work, no help from Microsoft.

[Bill K]

I get the same message "IE must close down, sorry for
inconvience". Are you kidding. Tried Microsoft, no answer.
Anyone got any idea's? Please Help. Thanks.

Bill,
Understanding and Troubleshooting Unrecoverable Errors (Faults) in IE
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=276393

The IE Error Report generates a "appcompat.txt" file.
This can usually be found in:

C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Temp\

Paste the contents (if found) in your next message.

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(s) is/are with
these tools.

Let AD-Aware Scan your system for advertising Spyware

and:

SpyBot-S&D

p.s Reset the 3rd party browser setting.

More: This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware,
parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
