unspecified error message

[hopper4765]

when I close a web window to go back to the original
window I get a series of little boxes with "unspecified
error" that multiplies several times and the last box
flashes for several seconds before my browser (IE) closes
on its own.

when I close a web window to go back to the original
window I get a series of little boxes with "unspecified
error" that multiplies several times and the last box
flashes for several seconds before my browser (IE) closes
on its own.

The first steps I would take in this case are:

1) Scan with current antivirus ("current" means a version not earlier
than 2002 but using updated virus definitions); 2) remove spyware with
Spybot Search & Destroy (www.security.kolla.de) and Ad-aware
(www.lavasoftusa.com). Be sure to update these programs before running,
and it is a good idea to do virus/spyware scans in Safe Mode. After you
know your computer is free of all viruses and malware, if the problem
still persists please report. Include some details about your system,
how you connect to the Internet (method and ISP), and what you've
already done to troubleshoot the problem.

Happy New Year,
