I have had IE6 for some time but lately have have error
message "The program has performed an illegal operation
and will be shut down." every time I close from being
online. Also having numerous "freeze up" problems.

I have tried clearing history/cookies. Tried the remove
program option to automatically repair IE. But this hasn't
helped.

Any other options?

When that error message comes up, click the blue link by "To see what this error report contains - click here". Need to know the App name and Mod name.

Or go to this article - Description and Availability of Internet Explorer Error Reporting Tool http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];Q276550 - scroll down for how to disable the Error Reporting Tool, and then let Windows capture the error the next time. There will then be an error box with a Details button. Need to know the XXXX caused a YYYY in module ZZZZ part. You can leave out the stack dump numbers. Also need to know the version of Windows the user is running.
 
Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
