IE7 has been intermittently shutting down ("encountered a problem and must
close. very sorry, etc.") The message is Faulting application iexplore.exe,
version 7.0.6000.16674, faulting module jscript.dll, version 5.7.0.5730,
fault address 0x0001d862.
Event ID 1000.
I've been looking around ms and java websites but can't really find a fix
for this specific problem. I've run spybot & avg, no viruses etc. Does
anybody have an idea what could be the problem? Thanks.

Jscript is not related to Java, even though Jscript is a shortened
JavaScript.

For Jscript Errors, you might look through the suggestions on this web site:
http://search.microsoft.com/results.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US&q=javascript+errors

You might try these first though.

Repair 5.6 Scripting Engine install:

Click, Start, Run, type

Regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Click OK

Click Start, Run, type

Regsvr32 jscript.dll

Click OK
 
Thank you, Mark. I did what you said, but I'm not sure what happened because
the little program ran and then...well, I guess it ran successfully, but I
didn't get any messages or anything. So I will have to wait and see if it
helped. I haven't tried Elmo's suggestion yet because I want to only do one
thing at a time. Kind of helps keep up with what's happening if you don't do
too much stuff that you don't understand.

Oh - one other question: if this doesn't help, would uninstalling and
reinstalling IE7 help the situation?
