Re: IE6 - MSHTML.DLL browser keeps crashing!

Jan,

I followed your instructions. Ran Safe mode, ran CWSHREDDER, Kill2Me,
Bugoff, and AdAware.

CWSHREDDER gave me a positive on cws.kill2me on one run. I cleaned it using
the software and cleaned it again using Kill2me just to be safe. It then
agve me a positive on cws.msconfig. I cleaned that as well.

I am still getting the same problems. I will try once more to run SFC. If
that doesn work, I will again try to reinstall windows xp w/ sp2.

I am not optimistic and believe i will have to reinstall the OS and all
software. I am still not certain if the culprit was malware/adware/etc or
simply a corruption of one of my DLLs (which SFC SHOULD fix, no?).

As i said before, it is the recent windows updates that bring out this
crashing problem. Any other suggestions?

Thanks.
