IE Keeps Closing

[KB]

Just recently (within the past couple of weeks) IE has
been automatically closing. Everything is just peachy,
then I get the "IE has encountered a problem and needs to
close" message. At first this was confined to Netscape
pages, but the problem seems to be spreading to MSN
sites. I am using IE 6 with all the recommended
patches/service packs installed. I run McAfee virus
software (7.0) and firewall. I scanned my whole system
for viruses and found none. Is anyone else having same
problem; any suggestions?? Thanks - KB

Are you still having the problem with IE 6? I have
similar problems. My home page is MSN.

Look for your exact error message on this page.

There could be more to the error message. Can you click a detail button and
get a more meaningful error message?

Rule out parasites.
