Memory error message

[Guest rubyjack]

Recently I've started getting a message when I close down an IE6 window.

The message is 'The instruction at "0x6600accc" referenced memory at

"0x6600accc". The memory could not be "read".' Microsoft yielded no

answers. I don't get this message every time I close down an IE6 window,

but I do get it frequently (65%?). Does anyone know what's going on? And

does anyone know if this is a message I need to worry about?

 

 

Thanks for any help,

Dan Hacker

Try disabling all IE add ons.

 

IE|Tools|Manage Add Ons

 

or try asking them here. x-posted to: windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser

Thanks for the help. Somehow I had overlooked this newsgroup. I have now

subscribed, and see that you have x-posted for me. I appreciate it. Now if

I can just get an answer (cross fingers).

That's an XPsp2 feature, so since the OP started from Win2000

I suspect at most the version will be IE6sp1.

 

The best you can do for controlling add-ons with it is use the global

diagnostic switch:

 

Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart)

(Ref. KB298931)

 

or use a tool such a BHODemon (from DefinitiveSolutions)

for more precise testing such as the Manage Add-ons tool

now provides.

 

Or just do some clean-boot troubleshooting (Ref. KB281770)

since some other programs which are not specifically IE extensions

are known to cause similar effects.

Thanks Robert. Been too long since I've seen Windows 2000 and it's version

of IE6 ;)

Re: Memory error message

 

It appears that you were right. I disabled BHO's, and I stopped getting the

error message. Took your advice and d/l BHODemon. It showed that all my

BHO's were "benign." So it looks like I'll have to take some time and

disable the BHO's one-at-a-time to find the offending culprit. The good

news is that it appears that the message is a mere annoyance and not a

harbinger of doom.

 

 

Thanks for the help,

Dan
