I have received a few emails lately that cause the following message.


Microsoft Visual C++ DeBug Library ..
DeBug Error !!! ...
Program: C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe
abnormal program termination
(Press Retry to debug the application)

Anything I try just terminates the program. The email goes into my anti-spam
folder and has no sender or subject listed and the message body is also
blank, at least when it gets to my email. I am using Win XP with OE6 with all
the updates in place. Any ideas or suggestions ?

I do believe your machine is infected.

In OE select Tools, Options, Security and make sure that OE is set to
the Restricted Zone. If that stops the problem, the messages probably
contained a virus or bad HTML code.

If that doesn't help, then the problem may be a malfunctioning anti-spam
program.
