Internet Explorer Error

[Yee Chow]

I recently experienced a similar problem that was posted
by someone else:

"Every time i click on Internet Explorer, i get an error.
sometimes it says error in unknown, and other times it
says error in MSIESH.DLL and then it closes out internet
explorer. I have spy bot and ad aware and used them both
and this did not fix the problem. somebody please help."

In my case, my Mcaffee Virus Scan caught a potential
unwanted program "Adware" and I removed it from the
C:/WINDOWS/DATA APPLICATIONS/WINPQ/MSIESH.DLL directory
and ever since, I've got the error messages noted above.

Can someone possibly contact me directly with possible
solutions?

Thanks.

Check your system for "hijackware":

Important: You *must* seek updates for Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc., before each
and every use, even "right out of the box". But even they can't catch
everything, 24/7. When all else fails, HijackThis
(http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware. **Post
your files to http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ or the HijackThis Logs forum at
http://forum.aumha.org/ for expert analysis, not here.**

Also update your virus definitions and then run a full system scan. From
now on, do both daily.

[Many anti-spyware sites continue to suffer from a week-long DoS attack.
Alternative download pages for Ad-Aware, Spybot, HijackThis and CWShredder

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
