Which OS? If NTx use Task Manager's Go to Process
command to identify the problem application.
(Right-click the Application tab entry and choose that command;
it will switch you to the Processes tab with the appropriate executable
highlighted.)

Then you could find out what version of that module you were
running--e.g. using msinfo32 /category SWEnvLoadedModules
That display also give you the location of the module; so you could
then find its Properties, including perhaps which company created it.
If it was supplied by your ISP check with them, or find the equivalent
generic module to use instead. Etc.


Good luck
