I have IE6.0 SP1 and I have intermittent problem with IS shutting down. When
IE shuts down I also loose the icons for internet connection (but I am still
connected) and the icons for other programs that are stored by the clock.
Once I reboot all icons come back. The error has been happening for a couple
of months. (even before the IE 6.0 SP1 upgrade). This error also resizes my
window. The message is:
EXPLORER caused a stack fault in module KERNEL32.DLL at 017f:bff7429f.

Can anyone help. I have spyware and have run checks.

Check for spyware.
IE 6.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.

Let AD-Aware Scan your system for advertising Spyware
