I am running IE 6, sp2 on XP Professional. Everything
was working fine. I downloaded AIM and Morpheus and
since then, IE only works on the administrator account
(mine). When others try to run IE, they get a dialog
that IE has enountered a problem and needs to close. I
have uninstalled Morpheus (I didn't want it in the first
place but gave in to my daughter). Any suggestions would
be appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm having a similar issue. I've even tried to create
another account but to no avail. Please HELP.
 
First off, I don't have kids...I am only 19. BUT!!! I do
have younger siblings. I think your daughter might have
changed some of the availability settings around. There
is a system policy editor on your system. I dont
honestly remember where exactly, but that controls your
IE settings. If anyone else wants to follow up on
that...go for it.

P.S. Morpheus is by far the EASIEST program to hack on
the face of the planet. Keep it off the system, it has
WAY to many holes.

Try renaming c:\windows\system32\moz030715s.dll to
c:\windows\system32\moz030715s.old. I'm not sure what
this file does but it seem to have corrected the problem
after the rename. Maybe part of Morpheus, dont know but
it WORKED!
 
Thanks for the input. I know you're right about Morpheus,
but I really don't think she changed any of the settings.
Morpheus may have. Anyway, if anyone could tell me how to
change these back I would appreciate it. Failing that, is
there a way to reinstall IE? I don't see it under
add/remove programs.
Thanks.
