Hi,
You need use additional malware removal tools. No program/tool detects and
removes everything.

Download, update and run Ad-aware, Spybot and (if running WinXP) MS
Anti-Spyware (Beta.)
See these sites for help:

Some malware must be removed manually. You may have to register and post a
HijackThis log to one of these forums for additional help. Look for the
proper forum and an "Important- Read This First" message so that you follow
proper procedure.

Or...
A legitimate program running in the background may be causing this. Disable
(for diagnostic purposes) programs such as pop-up blockers, security,
toolbars and other add-ons for IE, anti-virus, etc. Take a look at any
program that might be interfering with IE. You may have to reinstall, or not
reinstall, a program. Before disabling a third-party firewall, turn on the
Windows Firewall (from Control Panel or Security Center.)

Hope this helps,
Don

I've been getting these messages and crashes with annoying frequency. I've
downloaded every relevant update that I can find, to no avail. No spyware or
other malware problems. I'm running Win 98 SE; can't find an 'Event Viewer'.
I'm planning to get a new computer in the next 6 months, but what can I do in
the meantime? Pls advise.

Download a copy of Firefox - the problem is IE specific. I'm a
developer, in my case this problem was caused purely by invalid HTML
Markup - nothing to do with any external thing at all. Even then using
Firefox avoided it.

Thx, Jim -- worth the try. The problems increased after I updated Norton
Systemworks -- don't know if there's any relation.

Thanks, Frank . I check weekly using Norton, but it's possible there could be
something it has missed. I should have spybot and ad-aware anyway.
