Why is my computer doing this, and is this pop-up harmful, and how do I stop it from happening ?

Question

Lately ; when I click the X in the red square to close that page, I get the message: ( The instruction at "0x6600accc" referenced memory at "0x6600accc". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program. Session monitor: iexplore.exc-Application Error. )

Your internet explorer might be corrupted. Run your security products and antispyware applications then try running a SFC. Instructions below

One of the major culprits in missing or corrupt operating system files is running a registry cleaner or optimizer. They can flag important shared files for deletion or cleanup. Another cause is malware.

If you computer comes up clean after running your resident security products, you may want to consider running a System File Checker (SFC). This can be run in Safe
Mode should you prefer. To get into Safe Mode either hold down or tap the F8 key repeatedly while the computer is starting up. To run SFC, close all applications such as Office, Messenger, Email, etc, and go to:

- Start
- Run
- Type in sfc /scannow (include the space before the " / ")

What SFC does is that it attempts to fix or replace critical operating system files. Sometimes this can be done without the installation disk, however it may prompt you for the appropriate operating system installation disk. If that is the case, then you know that you definitely have file corruption or something missing. Insert the disk if prompted. Also you should run SFC using the Administrator account.

Don't surf, play games or do anything while SFC runs. After it is completed, reboot your computer.

NOTE: Before running any registry cleaner or editing the registry, always ensure you back it up first. If the registry cleaner you are using doesn't have that function, you can do it manually. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756
