Explorer needs to close

Some web pages cause a pop up box saying that Explorer has
encountered an error and needs to close; I am given an
option to send a report to Microsoft. The problem module
is msvcrt.dll. I cannot delete and reinstall this file
because Windows says it is using it. I have run all the
usual spybot etc scanners and the system is clean.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, this is driving me
(a) mad and (b) to Mozilla, neither of which is the first
option (although (b) might be unavoidable).

Thanks in advance - I know this has been raised before but
there just doesn't seem to be a solution yet!
