Runtime error -- prevent popup error message?

On some sites I get a message "A runtime error has occurred.", also asking
if I want to debug. This most often occurs when I'm filling out a form;
occasionally this message pops up after each character that I enter. I
always say that I don't want to debug and nothing bad seems to happen. Is
there any way to prevent this popup error message, which is very annoying?

Thanks,

Hi Don :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

"A runtime error has occurred. Do you wish to debug?"

If you happen to have any toolbars installed, such as Google, Yahoo or MSN,
close IE then uninstall the program(s) through Add/Remove programs then open
IE again. See if that resolves the problem. If not, then try the
following:

Disable the Script Debugger in IE

or…

Go to Tools>Internet Options>Advanced.
Check the box to "Disable script debugging."
Uncheck the box to "Display a notification about every script error."

Also update your scripting engine. The latest scripting engine can
be found at:

or
For 2000 and XP go to
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...43-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&DisplayLang=en
The install includes a new jscript.dl


Hope this helps.
