I'm using IE6 in XP with Netzero as my provider. The problem occurs when I
have pop up windows or multiple windows open and attempt to close one of them
down. When I close one, I get the standard "IE incountered a problem and must
shut down" message. Then all the windows shut down. It's a real problem when
I'm in my Netzero email page and I either attempt to forward an email or
write one. To get my addresses, I have to open a popup window and select an
address. Then I insert the address which closes that window. Immediately the
error message pops up and it shut down my IE windows.
