Why is it that when I go to any MSN site, such as hotmail or msnbc or even
the alerts page I get an error message on the bottom of my IE window. You
know the kind I'm talking about, the little yellow icon that say's, "done but
with errors on page"! Why does this happen and what can I do to prevent this?
 
Hi David :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

Control Panel> IE Options>Advanced Tab>Browsing section>Check disable script
debugging>UncCheck "Display a notification about every script
error">Apply>OK out.

Hope this helps.

1. You might want to refresh your scripting engine:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp
Windows Script 5.6 for Windows 2000 and XP
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...43-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&DisplayLang=en

Sometimes there's a corrupt file in the cache and one must go to Tools |
Internet Options and click Delete Files.

2a. Start>Run>Regsvr32 vbscript.dll

2b. Start>Run>Regsvr32 jscript.dll

(WinXP users who have problems with 2a and 2b, see
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm)

3. Re-register all DLLs listed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=281679

5a. IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Browsing>Enable third-party browser
extensions (uncheck & reboot).

5b. Find the hijacker that caused 5a to be checked (or if none were checked,
check for hijackware anyway):
