The error message is the box before that. It probably says something like
"Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close," etc. If
so, it may be corrupted. Please see:

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated with the program's update function
before every use, even when just downloaded. There's also a lot more to do
than just those two programs. CWShredder is also available here:
