well i would suspect spyware if you hadn't just reinstalled. how about finding a more recent copy of ie and manually upgrading ie. look for it on Quickbooks cds or download from microsoft downloads. windows update website has more tshooting tips.

Hi,
Are you using IE6 SP2? I have found that this causes the error on win98 machines.
If so go to Add/Remove programs, find IE and go for remove. You will be prompted for several options including one about reverting to a previous installation. Select this and good luck.
