Internet Explorer Script Errors

[Diana]

I keep getting a script error when trying to open a
program that I've used before. Now it never works. Asks
if I want to continue running on this page and doesn't
matter if you say yes or no, just doesn't work. I've
tried uninstalling the program and reinstalling it over
and over, updating IE, even did a system restore and
cleaned out all the cookies and temp files, and did all
critical and system updates. What else should I try? How
do I get rid of that error? Thanks!

Common script errors messages can be eliminated by Clicking:
Menu: Tools - Internet Options - Advanced tab.
Check "Disable script debugging"
Uncheck "Display a notification about every script error"

If still no joy then please tell us what program is causing this error.

1. You might want to refresh your scripting engine:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/nhp/default.asp?contentid=28001169
or
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp
Windows Script 5.6 for Windows 2000 and XP
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...43-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&DisplayLang=en

Sometimes there's a corrupt file in the cache and one must go to Tools |
Internet Options and click Delete Files.

2a. Start>Run>Regsvr32 vbscript.dll

2b. Start>Run>Regsvr32 jscript.dll

(WinXP users who have problems with 2a and 2b, see
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm)

3. Re-register all DLLs listed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=281679

5a. IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Browsing>Enable third-party browser
extensions (uncheck & reboot).

5b. Find the hijacker that caused 4a to be checked (or if none were checked,
check for hijackware anyway):
