Can't Run IE With These Errors!

[Ron]

I been having a problem running IE5 after just installing it with the
Win2k operating system. I also had the same problem when I was
running IE6 before: I would keep getting an error message about some
kind of "Run Time" problem. Things would run okay for a few moments,
then the same or a slightly different error message. This could go on
for quie a while before either things became stable or the computer
crashed . Ithought re-installing the OS would make things better but
it may have made the problem worse.

I am running IE on an old 166 MHz box that's slow and sluggish, but
otherwise works well as long as I don't try getting on the internet
with Internet Explorer; curiously, I don't have much of the problem
when using a browser like Opera. Does anyone have any ideas why this
run time error message keeps popping up, or have any suggestions for
stoppping it?

Did you uninstall IE6 before you reinstalled Win2K? And did you uninstall
all Service Packs that were installed after you'd installed IE6 before you
uninstalled IE6 and then reinstalled Win2K?

Thinking at first it might be a hardware problem, I did what engineers
like to call a "root canal job:" I started from scratch with a brand
new unformatted hard drive so it was as clean an installation as it
could possibly be.
