After installing latest security updates from Microsoft, everytime I attempt
to close an IE window I get an error saying it has encountered a problem and
needs to close.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled IE7 with no success in making this new
error go away.  Any ideas??

Thanks  EdE

Hi,
Why not using a *real* webbrowser ?

Utiliser le butineur, le courrielleur, le lecteur de nouvelles
et l'OS avec lesquels vous vous sentez le plus sécurisé ;)

I know of two causes for the vast majority of such problems:
1. Incompatible add-ons:  What if you right click the IE icon on the desktop
and choose Start Without Add-ons?
Or go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Internet
Explorer (No Add-ons).

2. Malware already installed on the computer:  Help with malware

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing Messenger Plus, whose ads for
malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince you that you
owe it to the author.  See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything.  Always choose Custom and see
what else is being carried along.  Don't install any extras you're not sure
of.
