I keep getting the above error in Vista Home Premium. It also says "A problem
has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the
program and notify you if a solution is availible."

The only other programs I have installed are iTunes, Firefox and Rocket Dock.

Initialy the error said I was missing msvcr71.dll, so I had a friend email
it to me, then I put it in System32. He is also running Home Premium.
 
I'm getting the 'stopped working' message for Internet Explorer as well as
for Live Messenger. It could be that the two apps use some code in common
so if one won't work both won't work.

I have a workaround for Explorer. Mozilla Firefox works fine. The event log
data is not helpful. I'm not even sure the failure information is getting to
Microsift.

The person you replied to posted the problem on FEBRUARY 2 OF LAST
YEAR.
 
It'd be nice to know what the error message that comes up says! Then we can
figure out your problem and provide you with help. :|
