IEXPLORE.EXE - Application Error

I got this error today and yesterday when I closed an IE browser window.
 
IEXPLORE.EXE - Application Error
 
The instruction at "0x7d5434a6" referenced memory at "0x00000004".  The memory could not be "read".
 
Click on OK to terminate the program
 
Is it anything serious?
 
Thanks much

    I am also seeing the same error message box being displayed. I did notice that it suddenly started occuring after my last WinXP system update was installed.

    Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall that update to verify it as the cause of the problem. System updates used to be listed in the 'Add/Remove Programs' in the Control Panel, but they are not listed there anymore (a Service Pack 2 thing perhaps I'm thinking?). Anyways, my theory is that the last system update was the cause of the problem.

    Solutions: I'm thinking that uninstalling/re-installing IE might be a way to resolve it. I'm yet to actually do that and am researching other avenues first.

    I get the same thing aswell, but the second error code is the same as the first in my case. (0x7470b439)
     
    It must be the updates I downloaded from Microsoft Update. There are only 3 reuslts from Google for my error code at the moment of writing this message, but Microsoft will probably look into it and make a Knowledge Base article for it.
     
    The error only came up once on my computer, a few seconds after loading IE.

    I uninstalled the previous two updates from Microsoft via 'Add/Delete Programs', so as to be sure to remove the update that I believed caused the problem in the first place. Unfortunately this didn't solve the problem. I then re-installed both updates again, but the problem still remains.

    Oh, and you CAN actually see the updates in the 'Add/Remove Programs' list if you tick the 'Show Updates' box (referring to my previous post)...D'oh!

    Anyway's, the problem still persists for me and am now (unfortunately) getting used to just clicking OK when the error occurs. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    I got another error today, same sort of thing, but the title bar said winhlp32.exe instead.

    Therefore this error might not only occur in IE.

    The only weird thing is that I didn't have anything loaded at the time it came up, so it might be a core system file or something.

    Any resolutions or articles (from Microsoft or not) are very much appreciated if anybody finds some.

    I get the same error but ONLY on one specific website.  Is this someting that is "dangerous" or just "annoying"? I don't have the technical "know-how" to reinstall my OS.  I keep my computer updated with "critical" updates, run AVG Free nightly and Ad-Aware about once a month or as needed to speed up performance.  Thanks
