I.E. Error 'confusing' Box

leo · 06-17-2005, 03:33 PM

Ever since I installed XP SP2 I have seen more error boxes than I have ever seen before.

In this situation; A box appears, when I get onto the net that indicates; Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close.

We are sorry for the inconveince. Something about you will lose all your data...., and for more information about this error Click Here

Then another box appears and shows;

1. error signature box; App Name: iexplore.exe

2. App Ver 6.0.2900.2180

3. Mod Name; msgsc.dll

4. Mod Ver; 7.0.813.0

5. Offset: 000215aa

There seems to be no choice but to Click Close and you are taken off the net.

This does Not happen each time I get onto the net. It appears on a random basis, e.g. maybe every five to six days, which is frustrating.

When it happens I do click Close, and then I am off the net and then I get back onto the net without any problem.

I am not sure if there is any solution to this issue, but I thought I would post it so that if someone else is experiencing the same thing then maybe there is some commonality to this error, and possibly to XP SP2.

well this always happens, and it could be possibly due to spyware or virus.
try to use the Mozilla FireFox Explorer.

or do a clean install of windows and SP2 before anything else

I would start by cleaning your computer from all spyware and viruses (refer to Byteman's stickey), and then i would switch to mozilla firefox. It's a better browser anyways.
