IE fails to close

[Termn8tr2002]

Hi:
I did a clean install of Win98se and downloaded the M$ updates including IE6 and SP1. About 1 week later, whenever I use IE6 (including pop-ups), I can't close the browser (either by the X in the upper right corner or right clicking to close on the bottom taskbar). I've attached the follow HijackThis file if anyone has any suggestions. Tnx in advance, Mikey
