SYMPTOMS
When you try to start Microsoft Internet Explorer, it may stop abruptly (crash), and you may receive the following error message:

Iexplore.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

If you click the Click here link at the bottom of the message box, error signature information that is similar to the following error signature information may appear:

Note The signature may list one of the following files instead of the mo030414s.dll file:
 * M030106shop.dll
 * M030206pohs.dll
 * Mdefshop.dll
 * Moaa030425s.dll
 * Moz030715s.dll



CAUSE
This problem occurs because one of the following browser helper objects (BHO) is installed on your computer:
 * BuyersPort
 * Morpheus
 * Morpheus Shopping Club
 * WURLD Shopping Community

Additionally, you logged on to the computer with a limited user account. The BHO tries to modify certain system files and Windows Registry entries that require administrative credentials to access. As a result, when the BHO cannot access these files and registry entries, Internet Explorer stops abruptly.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, remove the BHO from your computer. For information about how to remove the BHO, contact the manufacturer of the program.
