IE Error Message Keeps Popping up!!...Help!!

This just started recently and can't figure out why. Almost everytime I open an IE browser I get that error reporting screen, you know the one when it gives you the option to send the error to microsoft. Well anyhow, I can't even get into my school website now because I get this error and then it closes the browser automatically. I was told to scan for spyware, which I did, and I still get the error message. Can someone help me out? There's something causing this because It was not doing this before. A couple days ago I could visit any site with no problem.

Hi

This is what you need to do

open internet explorer click on tools >internet options

Click on delete cookies then delete files and click on ok then click clean history

Click on settings next to deleted files and click view objects on the next page

If you see any objects under the downloaded program files windows which opens you need to delete then all to do this click on edit>select all then click files deleted click yes to all the warning about files deleting

All these files are Browser helper objects which come back when you visit the site.

Close the download program window with the X on the right top.

click on ok to the settings windows

click on the programs tab and click reset web settings click on ok/yes

click the advanced tab under browsing uncheck a)install on demand (other)

b) Enable third party browser extensions(requires restart)

click on ok and then try to open the control panel

Internet explorer starts crashing or causing problems usually visiting porn or other sites which has malicious code hidden in them

If the above steps do not help then you need to go to the virus/spyware board an get instructions on hijackthis .

Temporarily, try using another browser instead of Internet Explorer and see if your able to access your school sites.
