"Memory could not be read"

[Dave]

Recently, I've had a problem when I view a PDF that was opened in a new
window in IE6. I receive an error like this:

The instruction at "0x097df5cb" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The
memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate the program.

It only seems to happen to PDF's. I installed the latest Acrobat viewer,
with no change. It doesn't seem to happen with Word, Excel, etc.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

Rule out parasites.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.

Let AD-Aware Scan your system for advertising Spyware

and:

SpyBot-S&D

p.s Reset the 3rd party browser setting.

More: This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware,
parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
