mshtml.dll failure in ie7 and outlook2000

Peter Goodman · Guest

Hi,

Does anyone have an idea about whats going on with my PC?

Running: Windows XP SP2, IE7.

After getting the latest updates over a week ago (12/13), when I
rebooted could not get back into ie 7 or open outlook 2000.

Each time I try to open either program I get the IE has encountered a
problem and needs to close window. The error information refers to
mshtml.dll.

I have done a zillion searches on this and found nothing specific to
my problem. Most of the the fixes involve "intermittent" errors with
this but my system fails every time.

I have 3 years of emails and my address book being held captive.

Any advice is appreciated.

Regards,

Peter Goodman

I had a similar problem when after updating 7, so I restored my system to a
previous date. It now works fine, I will not update 7 untill I hear more
positive comments.

Required reading IMHO before installing IE7:

Sandi's Installation Tips <= FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO THE LETTER!
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install

[And I strongly recommend using
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx as the
installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update. Make *certain* that you
check in at Windows Update immediately after installing IE7 and install any
critical updates offered. If Optional Updates category offers Root
Certificates update, I recommend installing it to take full advantage of
IE7's additional security.]
