HELP!!! Internet Explorer error/won't work!

Thread Starter 
My computer is pretty old, by computer-standards. I got it almost exactly four years ago, and I still use Windows 98. I'll be getting a laptop shortly, so I'll soon be free of this computer.

This morning, I opened Internet Explorer and went to a site. Before the site began loading, an error message popped up.

Here is a screenshot of the message (the second image is simply the same error message, just scrolled down to include everything):



So I opened Netscape Navigator, which I haven't used in years, and downloaded the newest version. So I'm currently using Netscape Navigator, and it really isn't as crappy as I had remembered it, but I still miss Internet Explorer.

I tried re-downloading IE, but for some crazy reason, I haven't had any luck with that yet. But I'm probably doing something dumb.

So--
What is going on with Internet Explorer? I can't recall doing anything differently than what I would normally do to cause this error. And how can I fix this?

Thanks

edit/update
Now AIM won't work either. It freezes just as it loads my buddylist. I can't help but think the two are related. hm. I guess I'll go do calculus homework now.

This is weird for a Windows 98 machine to act up w/o any reason (i.e. WindowsUpdate doesn't exist for you, so there's a big plus).

Did you install / uninstall anything recently (prior to the error with IE)?

Also, give Mozilla Firefox a try, it's a quicker download and easier on the system. Find it here: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
