I keep getting and Iexplore error pop up window whenever I go to certain web site (such as cbssportsline.com). The message says: "This program has performed an illegal operation and will shut down".

It's then followed by this message: "IEXPLORE cased a general protection fault in module USER.EXE at 001c:000013b8" and it's followed by another section of numbers and the such.

Any idea on how to fix this? It's driving me NUTS!!! Thanks!
 
Rule out parasites.

Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.

Thanks for the note, I appreciate your help. Unfortunately, though, this didn't do the trick - any other ideas?
