    Hi All, Had this problem a while now, Every so often, I get a box pop up saying there is an error with internet explorer, this give me the option to send and Error report to Microsoft, or shut down and ignore.

    Sounds like the same message you get wwith XP. If it's the same thing you can solve it by doing this.
    Open 'System' in the control panel, choose the 'Advanced' tab, and click 'Error Reporting'. You can then disable error reporting from here.

    I don't think ME has error reporting in that sense, and the issue is perhaps IE's error reporting. Have a look at this, and maybe it will sort out your issue.

    Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 or 6 for Windows Millennium Edition

    In Registry Editor (Regedit.exe), create a DWORD value called IEWatsonEnabled and set it to 0 in the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

    Internet Explorer 5.0 - 5.5 SP1 (All Operating Systems)
    To disable Internet Explorer Error Reporting, use the following steps:
    Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
    Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
    In the list of installed programs, click Internet Explorer Error Reporting, and then click Add/Remove (in Windows 98, Windows Me, or Windows NT 4.0) or Remove (in Windows 2000).
    Click OK.

    All the best
