I have Windows 98 and keep getting these messages when I am in Outlook Express and Internet Explorer. "Msimn caused an invalid page fault in module GDI.exe at 0001.0000a2bl" and "Microsoft Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvience". It usually shuts my computer down immediately and everything freezes up. The only way to close it down is to turn off my modem. It usually happens after I've been on the computer for 30 - 60 minutes. Hope somebody can help me! Thanks! Joyce Burns
