IE keeps crashing

[multiplex77]

Hi,

I'm running IE6.0 with SP1 on W2K Pro. Almost every time after about 10 minutes of usage, a pop-up message appears informing me IE needs to be shut down and asks if I want to send the error to Microsoft.

In particular, this happens everytime I open IE before dialing up to my ADSL broadband connection. After a few minutes of surfing, the error message pops up.

What could be the reason for this? I've run Ad Aware and have a firewall running. I have also updated my Windows with the latest MS update.

What can I do to fix this? Thanks for the help!

since when does this happen/did it work before?
what did you do recently (update/install)?
did you do a virus scan?
are there errors in event viewer?
empty temporary internet files/cookies/offline files.
if you have 2 ram sticks try it with only one.
reinstall ie6.
