Upon starting IE the following message occurs:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library:
Runtime Error
Program C:\Program File\Internet Explorer\IExplore.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way. Please contact the application support team for more information.
 
Hi,
The Google toolbar has been causing the C++ Runtime error recently. Try
uninstalling the Google toolbar from Control Panel> add/remove programs. You
may be able to reinstall it or you may have to wait for a newer version.

Hope this helps,

Thanks Don, that solved the problem.

Don,
I am getting the same error. I don't have the google toolbar installed. When
my wife or I are online, the other gets the error. When I sign on, she gets
the error. When I restart and she signs on, I get the error. I have installed
one of the parasite programs, Spywareblaster, and that didn't help. Any
suggestions?

Thanks,

Marc

Is your error exactly the same?
(Not another runtime error in iexplore like "abnormal program termination)?

Frank,
I'm also getting the same error that Marc gets. If one user is logged on
using the internet explorer, the other user gets the error. I've also
noticed that the windows explorer will generate the same error - I do not
have the google toolbar installed. This problem did not exist for me a few
months back. I sure hope we can find an answer to this problem.

Is it "terminate it in an unusual way", "abnormal program termination" or
something different? Marc never answered.

Frank,

The error window has the following text:

Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminat it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Windows Explorer gives the same message, except it points to
C:\Windows\Explorer.exe

I have a Dell Dimension 4500, IE Version 6.0 and windows XP Home edition
version 5.1 (SP 2).

Just some more peices to the puzzle. I've not heard any suggestions from
Microsoft on the problem. My guess is that it's either a problem with a ms
library or some application we've loaded overwrote some library file, just a
guess.

Sorry.
At this time the Google toolbar is the only thing I know that's causing the
problem. Do you have any other third party toolbars?

I have the same issue as Marc and Darrell. I do not have any toolbars
installed as far as I can tell. I have tried Microsoft defender. I have
tried TrendMicro CWSShredder. We only see this with IE open in another
account and when we try to open it in another account.
 
I had the same problem. I removed Google Toolbar, and that got rid of the
problem. I have been dealing with this problem for 2 months. I shifted to an
old copy of Netscape, but now I can go back to IE.

Thanks for this great resource.

Did you get to the bottom of this one as I have it too on my new machine from
Dell? I cannot have IE open in more than one side of the machine. It did have
the GoogleToolbar installed and I removed that yet its still happening. It
also impacts Outlook and Explorer. Any help would be greatly appreciated as
the machine is so unstable its a nightmare

Hi Steve,

What do you mean "cannot have IE open in more than one side of the machine"?
I assume you can still start IE and navigate to a site? But it only takes up
one half of the screen? Are you using a wide screen plasma?
If so to maximise the IE window (make it fill the screen) double click with
your mouse on the title bar (the top of the window)

Regards.

Thanks for replying Rob. What I mean is I have more than one users account on
the PC and if one of those accounts has been logged into and the person has
opened IE for any reason then no other person on that PC can that start IE or
Explorer when they switch to their side. if they try they getthe IE C++
runtime error which says it was an abnormal termination. Previous reports in
2005 said that this was often due to the google toolbar in IE but that isn't
installed on this machine anymore.

If it helps its a Dell 5150, just 7 days old running XP SP2 with Office XP
installed

TIA
Steve

Did you ever get to a fix for this as I have the same issue and it would help
to know what you did to fix it. I have tried the google toolbar removal but
that didn't help

TIA

Hi Steve,

I haven't investigated it or found a fix/workaround. There are previous
posts about users not being able to run IE concurrently under different user
accounts (Right click on the IE icon in the Quick Launch task bar and select
run as)... you may have to log on as the user account that already has an IE
session running. Yep thats the answer. Uncheck the "Protect my computer and
data from....." checkbox when you logon as the current user.

Sounds like you are doing a bit of testing and require concurrent IE user
account sessions?

Regards.
