Wininet.dll Causing Outlook 2003 - IE Crash
Dec 9, 2005
Outlook 2003 has been crashing on me, sometimes immediately, sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes when I try to drag a message to a folder... I get the "has encounterd an error and needs to close" popup, and can't do anything with the program, so I hit send report. If I have "restart Outlook 2003" checked, it crashes again immediatly upon opening, if I don't, and wait a little while to open it again, it will open, and download my mail, but then as soon as I try to do something, like delete an email or something, it crashes again. IE "soft-crashes" almost immediately every time I open the browser - by this I mean, I get the "has encountered an error and needs to close" popup, but I found that if i just drag the box down to the bottom off the screen, I can continue to browse just fine.
The details of the error report from the crash popup for explorer are:
AppName: iexplore.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.2180 ModName: wininet.dll
ModVer: 6.0.2900.2753 Offset: 0001b810
technical details won't let me copy & paste it here. I found the administrative tools place to view events, this is what I see for the IE crashes: Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 6.0.2900.2180, faulting module wininet.dll, version 6.0.2900.2753, fault address 0x0001b810.............

My computer's been experiencing loss of power whenever I use a program that requires the CD-ROM. It doesn't crash right away - I can run the program for 20-30 minutes before the computer loses power. The screen goes black, the fan disengages, and the whole thing simply shuts down immediately. The crash seems to be just a loss of power, as the system log doesn't record any errors and when I press the power button on the computer after a crash, Windows XP Pro starts up normally.
I've tried replacing the external power cable but it didn't solve the problem. CHKDSK doesn't find any errors on the drive and it's a relatively new hard drive, about 2 months old. My antivirus, which is up-to-date, can't find any viruses either. I'm sure it's a hardware problem, but what part is faulty? Could a power connector to the CD-ROM cause the entire computer to crash, even?

I needed to do a clean install so backed up all my files to a slave hard drive using the windows XP File and Settings transfer wizard. Went on to do a clean install and then started to import the files back (To the same Win XP operating system they were exported from The UNC file F.A.S.T created is a whopping 89 gig in size

My Dell 4600 is a Pentium 4, 3.00 GHz with 1536MB RAM and uses WindowsXP SP2 with 90% free space. I've just started having error messages: "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and must close." This is very annoying. I did print out one dialog box: "Error signature AppName: iexplore.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.2180 ModName: hpswp_selection.dll ModVer: 2.15.7.0 Offset: 000246b8.
From the ModName description above, it would seem to be associated with HP; and the only thing different re my pc is that yesterday I installed an HP C7250 all-in-one printer and did the recommended software installation as I do scan and fax in addition to copying, printing, and photos. What can I do to eliminate these error messages? Hopefully, there will be an easy fix.
I was hesitant to get another HP printer as I've had several. The first all-in-one was great and lasted about 5 years; the last 3 were not so good and were all replacements for the first with each successive A-I-O having problems of its own. Would you suggest that I uninstall the HP software, return the printer, and get a new Canon? However, I've read messages that users are frequently unhappy with Canon's ink-guzzling, expensive ink cartridges.

When saving a jpg image in Firefox, Firefox crashes and closes without warning. When viewing a folder full of pictures in Windows Explorer, Explorer crashes and closes in about 10 seconds (it varies). This is even when viewing the files without thumbnails (Detailed list view). I have removed Thumbs.db from this folder. I have run chkdsk /F on all partitions in my computer. This folder that is causing the Explorer crash is on a FAT32 partition. chkdsk found no errors on the FAT32 partition, but fixed something in the NTFS partition.
Even though only one folder seems to be causing Explorer to crash, it seems that no matter where I save images in Firefox, Firefox still crashes. I scanned for viruses a bit. I ran Free AVG on the entire computer. I also ran Trend Micro Housecall from the browser. No threats were found. I am using Windows XP with Service Pack 2 and all the latest updates on a Gateway MT3419 laptop.

I have windows XP, and a dell insiprion 6000. The last three times I have ran a defraged my hard drive it has become bad. After running my computer would act normal untill i shut it off, then windows xp would not load again. I get a blank screen with a blinking dash in the top left of the screen. They have been under replaced for free by seagate so i am wondering. Have i had bad luck with hard drives or could there be a problem with other parts of my computer?

my 3 years old HP AMD 2.0 GHz laptop (Windows Home SP1, updated to SP2 and relatively well updated with security updates) suddenly crashed with a blue screen then could no longer boot up. I then successfully used the four "System Restore" CDs (that initially came with the laptop) to reinstall Windows XP Home SP1 (wiping out all files on the hard disk). I also installed Microsoft Office 2003, and downloaded and installed Mozilla Firefox and AdAware. The laptop then ran fine for a while, until I used Windows Update to install about 70 of the Important Updates recommended by Windows Update. Soon after, while surfing the internet, the laptop's fan got into high gear mode blowing much hot air, then I got the dreaded Blue Screen, and the laptop crashed and rebooted. All processes got started fine, and after a couple of minutes, total CPU usage settled down to around 1%, with the System Idle Process taking up 99% CPU. This time, I immediately started Task Manager to display all processes and their CPU usage.
With no application running, I kept watching for at least another 5 minutes, and saw a svchost.exe process suddenly appearing at the top of Task Manger's process list (ordered by CPU usage), hogging 98% of CPU usage, and driving the CPU hard into being overheated and another blue screen crash. After some searching and reading, I tried to download and run the recommended "Notebook Hardware Control" (NHC) program, and set the CPU Clock to "Maximum Battery" (for both battery and plugged in power) in the hope of slowing down the CPU Clock and avoiding overheating, and this did not help either. I then rebooted, and watched for this svchost.exe rogue to appear, and saw that the CPU temperature (as displayed by NHC) climbed quickly from 40 degrees C, to 50, then 60, then 75 - but when I then hastily used Task Manager's "End Process" command to kill the offending svchost.exe process, System Idle Process reclaimed 94% of CPU time, the CPU temperature quickly dropped back down eventually to around 40 degrees, and the laptop kept working fine without this svchost.exe system process. The problem is that this occurs regularly while I am using the laptop, and I cannot always react quickly enough to NHC's warning about rising CPU temperature in order to kill the svchost.exe, and therefore would get a crash every 15 or 20 minutes, interrupting my work. Is there any solution I can try?

Earlier this evening I had a problem that ended up requiring me to do a fresh install of Windows XP Pro with service pack 2 onto my computer. I did not format, rather I installed over the current and problematic install. I've done this a number of times in the past with very few problems. Tonight was not one of these times however.For some reason (and this has not happened in the past) when I went to open up Outlook I could not find the program at all. I cannot in fact find any Office programs when I had the full suite installed.When doing this in the past, all my desktop icons remained in tact as did my startup menu. Now, this time, the only thing missing is Office.

I have a user who cannot open DOC attachments in Outlook 2003. When she tries to open the attachment, it attempts to open the file in Excel. When she opens a doc file stored on the hard drive, it opens correctly, so I know it isn't a Windows file type association issue.

I have a strange problem with Outlook 2003 and Mozilla Firefox browser. When I receive an email with a internet link and I click the link two browser windows open, one to my default home page, the other one to the link. Sometimes one of the Firefox browser windows will be no bigger than the little firefox icon and the three window controls.

I am not on the PC that is having the problems. Here's the story - I turn on the PC, the first screen appears where I select a user.No matter what user I select it get "this application has failed to start because wininet.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem.
I click on ok several times and eventually get to a screen that only shows my wallpaper. I can get to the task manager window but nothing else. I called dell and spent 2 hours getting nowhere

error messages saying that I need "wininet.dll" intalled...I get these messages when I try to operate Spy-bot, Adware, and MSN...and they even pop up when I'm browsing around on the internet. I can't access any of the above mentioned programs...they say access is denied or they just terminate before they even start up. The last time that I saw this "wininet.dll" is when it poped up on Spy-bot as a virus...or so I thought...I moved it to the "virus vault" of Spy-bot and then all the above mentioned problems started to happen.

I am having this wierd and serious problem, my "system" prcoess causes my CPU usage to jump from any where to 50-90% utilization, causing my computer to stop or hand. It also causes all my sound to dissappear saying that my direct sound source is not working. I just did a format and this problem is still occuring. I do not know what to do. Do you guys have any idea where to go for help, because i am also THAT desparate to go to microsoft. I am wondering if maybe it is trying to install drivers under the ststem process.

I got a new computer a few weeks ago and downloading anything causes whatever else I'm doing to lag and stutter. Its especially noticable in sound and movies but if its a fast download even the mouse will skip around. Even loading websites causes this. Offline everything works fine. Any idea what I could do to fix it?

At least twice per day Explorer.exe hogs the CPU to 99%. I can only stop it by rebooting. It has started doing so only the last two weeks or so. I use Windows XP Pro, Norton Security, Stopzilla, Counterspy, Microsoft anti spyware, Norton Ghost, Retrospect Express for my backup drive. I have a Pentium 4 2.25 Ghz, 1.5 Gb memory, Nvidia graphic card. I have searched Microsoft Knowledge Base as well as Google groups and have found no answers.

I use an Acer Veriton 7200D using Windows XP Professional SP1, bought a Labtec USB Webcam and installed it, it works and I thought everything was fine until I noticed all the icons on the sys tray have disappeared, the only one left was the Labtec camera icon.Second thing I noticed was when I want to see MY COMPUTER, it shows up nothing, the only thing showing was a torch saying "searching", so I deinstalled the whole thing and get system retore to get my icon and MY COMPUTER back.I then installed the camera on my daughter's machine which uses WIndows XP home and it was all right.

I've got xp without sp's. Went to run windows update. It started it's download, I believe installing sp2. About 3/4's of the way through it locked up. The computer was froze. I ctr-alt-del to get task manager but nothing happened. So I waited awhile longer and still nothing. So I rebooted the comp. Now everytime I go to windows update through help & support or through mc's site, even just clicking on the link windows update help at mc's site locks up the computer. I have to end task to get the comp running again. I've searched high and low over the internet for the answer, ran spybot, virus scan, and even reloaded xp. Which when i did that and it asked for registration info i filled it out and sent it and it too locked up the comp.

It seems as if my new wireless adaptor is causing problems, or the fact that my old one is still showing up in the device manager but it says it cannot be uninstalled because it may be needed to boot the computer. The one I cannot uninstall is 3 isntances of Linksys Wireless-B USB Network Adapter v2.8 Deterministic Network Enhancer Miniport. It is listed 3 times as #2 and #3. I did not have any problems over the summer when I used my computer back home and hooked up to our wired internet rather than the wireless. My computer now keeps freezing and then when I push the reset button and the computer starts up, it goes to the blue screen of death. When that happens I flip the switch in the back of the computer and turn it off and on again and it starts right up, soon to freeze again. Does anyone know what could be going on here?
