Internet Explorer keeps crashing and when I reboot, I get a message saying 'Windows needs a file that may be used to run in 386 enh mode'. Does anyone have this file ? If so, can they e-mail it to me (if not too large). Thanks

This file is from DOS. Check your DOS diskettes.

Thanks for your response. I checked my DOS directory and it does indeed exist. I can't understand why it can't find it. Mind you, the real problem occurs before that with the IEXPLORE error.

Sorry, but VFINTD.386 is only neccesarily for MWBackup.
It has nothing to do with your Infernal Exploder
