Internet explorer display problem

April 3, 2008

Here is a problem I get sometimes on normal websites, like yahoo.com or

cnn.com:

************************

===========================================================================

Error.txt File name: Error.txt

===========================================================================

Action canceled

Internet Explorer was unable to link to the Web page you requested. The page

might be temporarily unavailable.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please try the following:

Click the Refresh button, or try again later.

If you have visited this page previously and you want to view what has been

stored on your computer, click File, and then click Work Offline.

************************

Each time I click on properties it reads:

res://C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SHDOCLC.DLL

I looked in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM. The SHDOCLC.DLL file is present.

This shows up where advertisements are are suppose to show a picture or

animation in a web page.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Martin Murray

Re: Internet explorer display problem

It sounds as if you have something blocking the pages. Please provide a

list of any anti-virus, spyware, adware, malware, firewall programs you may

be running. Also, are you using the HOSTS file to block unwanted ads? If

this is something that has recently manifested itself, think about anything

you may have added or changed in that period.

Running Superantispyware in the background and it runs a daily scan @05:00

every day. CCleaner & RegistryMedic are also installed.

Re: Internet explorer display problem

Not familiar with Superantispyware. Did you just install this recently? I

don't think CCleaner or the RegMedic would be the culprit. Try disabling

the Superantispyware when you run across a site you can't load and see if it

makes a difference.

Maybe one of the gurus will be along shortly and shed more light on this

issue......

Re: Internet explorer display problem

I can't say for sure but I wouldn't expect it to be SuperAntiSpyware causing

the problem. I run that myself although that's on XP but it is the Pro

version so is protecting in real time but I only do a scan once a week not

every day.

I have the free version on a WinME machine and have never had any problems.

Have you tried asking over at their forum to see if it is SuperAntiSpyware

causing the problem, if it is they will have a fix I'm sure as the support

is very good, and of course if it's not the problem something else on your

machine is playing up <g>

Re: Internet explorer display problem

It very likely isn't 'SUPERAntiSpyware'.

I have this situation once in a while, but noticed that it is caused by

clicking the mouse button too quickly. If you tried it again, as suggested,

only a bit slower, will it work then? Let us know, please.

SUPERAntiSpyware does not filter any web content, so it's not causing

the issue.

Re: Internet explorer display problem

Nick....tried to change this around (we TOP post in the MS news groups,

btw).....but I had meant to say I have Super AntiSpyware on here (XP)

and it certainly does NOT cause any problems.

I am highly suspicious that it is either CCleaner or the Registry one.

I found CCleaner to be quite intrusive and I didn't trust it. As to

interfering with web browsing, can't speak to that, but I wouldn't be

surprised if one of the above two didn't cause the problem. Or the OP

messing in the Registry. (G)

Re: Internet explorer display problem

Okay, so we have ruled out SuperAntispyware and I can tell you I have never

had any problems with CCleaner. I guess it could be a Reg issue, not sure.

How about sending some of the URL's you can't open, so, we can try. Are all

of these pages that you have been able to access before??

Re: Internet explorer display problem

Well, it is certainly not a problem with the speed of clicking the mouse.

As for websites, mail.yahoo.com is a good example. It usually has one of

those ads that causes the problem.

Re: Internet explorer display problem

Well, I went right to the site with no probs. And you haven't added or

updated any protection programs about the time this issue started?? I still

think you have something blocking the sites, I just don't have any idea

what. One way to eliminate software as a problem would be to do a selective

startup and stop about half of your protection programs from starting and

try the site. Then block the other half and try again.....if either

instance allows the connect, you would know the problem app is in that

group. It would be a process of elimination.

Maybe someone else has a better idea.......that's my best shot. Wish I

could help you more. Be sure to keep us posted on your progress, especially

if you resolve the issue.......I would like to know how!!

I have a registry backup from the end of December. I know the ads were

Re: Internet explorer display problem

Four months is a long time but.. So long as you use System Restore, you

should be able to 'Undo your last restoration' and get back to your present

state if all goes pear-shaped. Just be aware that any significant changes

you've since then will be lost and you *may* have to re-install stuff.

However, if you treat it cautiously and even if you only do it to confirm

that there is a 'registry issue', at least you can get back to where you are

now.

Good luck
