Re: IE does not start at all

Thanks for replying Rob. What I mean is I have more than one users account on
the PC and if one of those accounts has been logged into and the person has
opened IE for any reason then no other person on that PC can that start IE or
Explorer when they switch to their side. if they try they getthe IE C++
runtime error which says it was an abnormal termination. Previous reports in
2005 said that this was often due to the google toolbar in IE but that isn't
installed on this machine anymore.

If it helps its a Dell 5150, just 7 days old running XP SP2 with Office XP
installed

TIA
Steve

Hi Steve,

What do you mean "cannot have IE open in more than one side of the machine"?
I assume you can still start IE and navigate to a site? But it only takes up
one half of the screen? Are you using a wide screen plasma?
If so to maximise the IE window (make it fill the screen) double click with
your mouse on the title bar (the top of the window)

Regards.

Did you get to the bottom of this one as I have it too on my new machine
from
Dell? I cannot have IE open in more than one side of the machine. It did
have
the GoogleToolbar installed and I removed that yet its still happening. It
also impacts Outlook and Explorer. Any help would be greatly appreciated
as
the machine is so unstable its a nightmare

I have the same issue as Marc and Darrell. I do not have any toolbars
installed as far as I can tell. I have tried Microsoft defender. I
have
tried TrendMicro CWSShredder. We only see this with IE open in another
account and when we try to open it in another account.

Frank,

The error window has the following text:

Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminat it in an
unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more
information.


Windows Explorer gives the same message, except it points to
C:\Windows\Explorer.exe

I have a Dell Dimension 4500, IE Version 6.0 and windows XP Home
edition version 5.1 (SP 2).

Just some more peices to the puzzle. I've not heard any
suggestions
from Microsoft on the problem. My guess is that it's either a
problem with a ms library or some application we've loaded
overwrote
some library file, just a guess.

Frank,
I'm also getting the same error that Marc gets. If one user is
logged on using the internet explorer, the other user gets the
error. I've also noticed that the windows explorer will generate
the same error - I do not have the google toolbar installed.
This
problem did not exist for me a few months back. I sure hope we
can
find an answer to this problem.

Is your error exactly the same?
(Not another runtime error in iexplore like "abnormal program
termination)?

Is it "terminate it in an unusual way", "abnormal program
termination" or something different? Marc never answered.

Sorry.
At this time the Google toolbar is the only thing I know that's
causing
the
problem. Do you have any other third party toolbars?
