I keep getting this error in IE6 and I have to close IE down. I also have firefox browser and I get the error in that broswer to.
I have windows98SE.
It doesnt happen every time but it does happen often.
Does anyone know what this problem could be and how I can fix it? Thanks.
And the error is?
Sorry it took so long, waiting for the error to show up.
“IEXPLORER caused a general protection fault in module GDI.EXE”
Then when I click details..
This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down
Anyone? Ive searched the knowledge base on microsoft but didn’t find anything.
You should look a little harder next time 😉 Typing the exact error into Google yields a lot of results.

Seems that you’re having trouble printing from the Internet. Try the Microsoft KB article in that Google search, there, seems it may have a fix for your problem.
Sorry Spike, I have searched and looked at all (or most) of those sites and still can not find a solution to the problem. I don’t have a HP Printer, I have a Lexmark Printer and I don’t get the error when I’am printing. I even uninstalled the printer and still getting the error. I also don’t have the font that is listed in there either. So I don’t know what I should do at this point.
Have you tried this hotfix? Sounds exactly like what you are experiencing.
