I have IE 5.50.4134.0600 which has a few "normal" updates to it. I use both Opera (3.62) and IE 5.5 Noticed recently with IE going to the Microsoft Knowledge Base website that to do a File - Print that it would not print one of the "results pages" that I had selected, instead "crashing" or closing the browser after giving this error: IEXPLORE invalid page fault in module MSHTML.DLL at 0187:010623b2 Numerous times I tried to print a page or two of results from their knowledge base page, only to find that I got the same problem.... IE browser would crash with the same problem. HOURS and HOURS and HOURS of checking my drivers (dll's) and other things, MFC dll's and VB6 runtime dll's, AND doing System File Checker (SFC), plus other things..... only to find out.... I could go to a site and print with Opera. Other programs could print. Finally I went to Windows Update page, selected for Updates, that completed with the list of updates. Tried File - Print with IE 5.5 and sure enough I could print that page. Thus I must conclude that Microsoft must have BUGS in their "new look" pages of the MS Knowledge Base. From what I could find, MSHTML.DLL is just a "video" driver for IE browser. Sent a message to Microsoft advising them of their bug. They may have programmed for IE 6 WITHOUT consideration for other browsers such as IE 5 or lower or others. I am not about to change to IE 6.0 which my system may not support (Win 98 SE) and I don't need. By the way, IE5 is the most used browser (even after all the MS security fixes etc). Hope this helps others re the IE 5.5 ERROR in MSHTML.DLL Try another site? It could be a programmer's error or neglect to consider other browsers, and it may not be a problem on your own computer.... lest I just learned after many hours. Note my email here is a phoney.... purposely to avoid emails especially any spam.

Your system with 98SE would work fine with IE 6, but if you aren't having any other problems, might as well not waste the time. Also, just out of curiosity, how come you are using such an old version of Opera? Opera 6 has a ton of new features, like thte "refuse pop-up windows" option and the ability to pause and resume downloads, even after shutting down the computer. Is there any particular reason you prefer the older version?
