Hello!
I need help with my PC. Whenever I try to connect to a web page an error message appears as follows: "Iexplore has caused an error in MFCOE.DLL. Iexplore will now close". Sometimes the same message will pop up apart from one change - it says: "..caused an error in KERNEL32.DLL".

Can somebody give me some advice please? Thanks.
Dave.

Try doing a Start/Find/Files.... enter MFCOE.DLL (recheck spelling on that file)
If it comes up in Windows directory, or at all, rename it to MFCOE.DLL.sav
Now try to access the net.
If successful, run HiJackThis and post the log in forum cybersafety.
It may be a BHO problem caused by a virus or trojan.
Good luck.
