When I print or shall preview from the web browser I get
an error message; "There is an error in the script on
this page. Would you like to continue run script in this
page?

Anyone who knows?

I have this problem too. I am running IE6.0 in XP Pro with Service Pack 1
and cannot print from the web browser. File\Print Preview throws up the same
error too.

The script error details in the window that pops up are:
Line: 639
Char: 1
Error: Invalid argument.
Code: 0
URL: res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\shdoclc.dll/preview.dlg

It was suggested I disable 3rd party broswer expensions in Internet
Options\Advanced but this has had no effect.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks. The 2 listed "printing related" items on the link not not say they
are related to IE6 under XP though. Do you think they could still prove
responsible here? I also installed the Scripting update for XP/2000 but no
effect.

Rgds, Marc

Try, in order:

1. (Re-)Installing 5.6 Scripting Engine from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp

2a. Start>Run>Regsvr32 vbscript.dll

2b. Start>Run>Regsvr32 jscript.dll

[If running WinXP-SP1a, see http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm.]

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

4a. IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Browsing>Enable third-party browser
extensions (uncheck & reboot).

4b. Find the hijacker that caused 4a to be checked:

You *must* seek updates for Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc., before each and every
use, even "right out of the box". But even then, they can't catch
everything. 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 Spyware forum at
http://forum.aumha.org/ for expert analysis, not here.**

As part of the hunt, also update your virus definitions and then run a full
system scan. From now on, do both daily.
