Runtime error message

[Mcd]

Recently, when opening IE (or even more common when opening a new window
within IE), a box comes up that says "runtime error 226 at 01F065B3" with an
"ok" box within it. It won't allow the browser window to open untill I click
on the "ok" box. Usually this error message comes up two or three times in a
row (I just keep clicking on "ok"), then the browser window opens and all
seems ok.

The problem is intermittant but frequent, and seems to go away for awhile if
computer is restarted. I tried running "repair" on IE, no change. Also tried
clearing history, temp internet files, cookies, etc.

I'm not aware of anything else, but this is getting pretty annoying and I'd
like to get it cleared up. Any help or info appreciated.

OS is Win98 SE
