Default computer help ? strange message when IE fails


I keep getting a message box pop up telling me that IE wont work.
some times I can reload a page and it ok other times I can not open a page
at all the one below is one of them. I assume there is some script being run
that my pc falls over ever time it comes across it.

This is message :-
Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close.
we are sorry for the inconvenience


can anyone think of why this happens or what I should do.

Regards David.

Dump IE and use Firefox. Problem solved, plus you get a much better
browser.

Matter of opinion i'm afraid. Firefox is still slower to load up and load
pages than IE on my computer. Yes IE may only be faster because its part of
the core of the OS, but it doesn't matter to me how it does it, fact is it
does everything it needs to do, and does it more quickly than any other
browser i've tried.

Its OK, i'm sure the EU in all their wisdom will soon make Microsoft take IE
out of Windows too, like they have done with Media Player. Pearls of wisdom
there, who else could have made a company remove the media playing software
from a Media Edition operating system? Now everyone who ends up with this
version, whether they wanted to or not, has to go to the trouble of finding
and downloading new software where once it worked fine out of the box.
Genius - I love the EU!

I don't have any problem with IE, as you say, it does everything that I ask
it to with very little fuss. I also use Netscape 7 sometimes and I have used
Mozilla. They all do the same thing in a slightly different way. I still
don't see a reason to change.

There is one very good reason for using Thunderbird rather than OE - TB
automatically unspoofs links sent in email, you know the one that look
like www.ebay.com, but actually would take you to a fraud site.
In TB you are taken to the genuine site.
Firefox isn't brillant, but bookmarks are better than IE and it doesn't
seem to be prone to toolbar hijacking like IE is.

But both of those are only benefits if you are too quick to click 'yes' to
everything that pops up on your screen. Given that to use
Thunderbird/Firefox would mean that you specifically went looking for them,
to me that would imply that you should have a good understanding of
computers and the potential risks and so not be taken in by dodgy links.
I've never been hijacked by a dodgy toolbar I didn't want, because when
things pop up saying "do you want to install/accept/..." i won't click yes
or OK unless i know i clicked on something I wanted from a reasonably legit
looking site. And apart from being able to recognise a dodgy e-mail a mile
off, if you mouse-over the link in IE you get the real address in the
toolbar.
Some of the features would be nice to have in IE, but in reality 99% of IEs
problems seem to be down to user error.
