Runtime Error After Windows Update

[jellybean]

I recently used Windows Update to install the following
components:

Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 Service
Pack 1 (KB832894)

Windows Blaster Worm Removal Tool (KB833330)

Security Update for Windows XP (KB828028)

Security Update for Microsoft Data Access Components (KB832483)

After the install I get the following error whenever I try
to click on a link from a Yahoo search result using IE 6.0

"A Runtime Error has occurred.

Line xxx

Error: Object doesn't support this property or method."

The line number changes with the link.

This does not happen in Netscape 7. I uninstalled the
Blaster Tool and the security update (KB828028) but the
problem still persists. Before, I could click on the links
if I refreshed the page, but now I can't. I can browse
otherwise.

I think I had cookies disabled when I did the update. Could
this have caused a problem? How can I remove the other
updates? They do not appear in the Add/Remove Programs list.

Thanks.

From http://www.fjsmjs.com/IE/scriptdb.htm

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Check the box to Disable script debugging.
Uncheck the box to Display a notification about every script error.

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

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

Thanks! I flushed the cache, and it seems to work. I'll
disable the scripting notification if it goes bad again.
I'll also update the scripting engine as you suggested.
