MSHTML.DLL

[Patrick]

I'm running WinME
ie6 ver: 6.0.2800.1106IS
SP1; Q330994; Q828750;

When I do START>>Windows Update I get the following error
before it reaches the "Green Button" screen

Iexplore has caused an error in MSHTML.DLL.
Iexplore will now close.

IEXPLORE caused an invalid page fault in

Hello Henri
Thank you for the clues, most of the help I can find for
this error relates to IE5.5 not IE6.
My MSHTML.DLL properties>version says 6.0.2800.1264
NOT 6.0.2800.1106
Anyway, I have re-installed IE6 and the original fault
has gone. Now, after a power up I am getting the second
half of the Install Wizard telling me that the install
needs to be completed, but then it says I already have
the latest updates and should Exit.
GREAT!
Long live Netscape / Opera / etc.
