When launching IE6 I get the following dialogue box:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE

This applicatio has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

How can I resolve this error?

You diodn't mention OS so am assuming XP. (You should always mention OS & SP)

Personally I think MS is off the deep end on a lot of things. Hardly anyone has the knowledge to debug runtime errors, so I always turn off Error reporting on every new XP computer I set up. Mainly because so many web pages have runtime errors.
go to My computer\properties\advanced\error reporting and disable that mess.

Uninstall the GOOGLE TOOLBAR and that will solve your problem. Tested solution.

I'm getting the same error. I tried to uninstall it. I couldn't. I tried to reinstallation, that didn't work either. I was getting error that a newer version was already installed on the computer. If anyone has a solution out there, please help. I use a software that only uses ie, bummber!
Thank you
