Posted this a few days ago. SOmeone replied but did not resolve my problem.
Looking for anymore ideas. I have formatted my computer 2x and install all
drivers and was still getting this error. I have 2 gigs RAM and a AMD 3200
64 bit processer. I use XP pro version SP2 IE6. Here is the error report,
followed by what I did so far....
You chose to end the nonresponsive program, Internet Explorer

To see what data this error report contains, click here... did that and
here
is what you get

szAppName : iexplore.exe szAppVer : 6.0.2900.2180 szModName :
hungapp
szModVer : 0.0.0.0 offset : 00000000


Then I clicked on technical information about the error report...

C:\DOCUME~\Jeff\LOCALS~\Temp\WERfadb.dir00\iexplore.exe.mdmp

I did the following

I would first totally delete the TIF folder:

If no joy....

This may be caused by spyware/malware that's gotten installed on
your system. Use Ad-Aware, MSAS and/or Spybot Search & Destroy to remove
it.

Microsoft Anti-Spyware (beta)

Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/
Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
Good sites on how to install and use Spybot -

Also download a winsock repair tool, to have just in case cleaning up
anything found breaks it -

Winsock repair tools:
LSPFix- all versions of Windows http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.zip
Winsock2 Fix- Win98, ME

LavaSoft- all versions of Windows-

If no joy, in IE go to Tools...Internet Options...Advanced tab, Browsing
section, uncheck "Enable third-party browser extensions", click Apply, click
Okay, reboot. If that solves your problem, then more troubleshooting is
needed to find out exactly which program, or Browser Helper Object (BHO) is
causing this problem. You don't want to leave it at that, as some BHOs are
useful or necessary - like Adobe Acrobat for reading .pdf files or an
essential component of Norton AV. Get BHODemon -
http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm - read all about BHOs.
Disable all items, and then gradually replace one or two at a time to narrow
down the culprit.

Or if you have IE 6 SP-2 you can do this within the browser:

If all the above fails, then the problem could be something new that the
spyware cleaners above don't have in their databases yet. In that case....
HijackThis direct download:

Then post it's output log to the forum here for analysis and feedback by the
parasite experts:

Or the other HijackThis Logs forums listed here:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/forums.html

Or try this program to get some of the most nasty malware:

I didn't report it cause I reformatted after I did it. From my understanding
is nothing can survive that. The only things I have installed on my computer
were my online trading platform that has worked for 6 months no problem and
never had any issues and all of windows updates and SP2 AVG and adware. Both
of them still come back clean.
