IE6 closes with illegal operation window

[Guest]

Everytime I close my browser the error box pops up with illegal operation caused a general protection fault in user.exe @ 0004.00000499 etc. I also have a new tool bar that I cannot seem to get rid of that showed up at about the same time as this other problem. It is called Find Whatever Now. Does anyone know if these two phenominons are related and how do I correct either problem?

Check your system for hijack and malware with the following programs. Be
sure to update the first two programs as soon as that are installed to be
sure they have the latest definitions, then run them.
