OS = Win98SE, IE6 SP1

I have a problem with one website. I can navigate to the website below
http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/show_sp/episode/0,1976,FOOD_9994_28251,00.html
but when I click on one of the recipe links towards the bottom of the page
I get the error described below and IE6 shuts down.

Iexplore
"This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down."
Details:

when I click "close" to close the message box, I get the following "An
error has occurred in Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer will now close."

Any ideas? Thanks, Bart
 
Module Unknown by the operating system is almost always caused by some
malware.

There's a good possibility that this is being caused by a third-party
program (adware, spyware, parasite).
