lspcs.dll error in IE 6.0

[leeroi]

I'm running Windows XP and IE 6.0. OVer the past couple of weeks I have had an increasing number of IE 6 shutdown errors related to lspcs.dll. I've scoured the newsgroups and Microsoft support site (no help). Some postings have suggested that this error is related to a Get Right file (which is not installed on my computer), a Cybersitter file (I had cybersitter installed, but have uninstalled it). There was also a suggestion to run AdAware to remove spyware, which I've done. I then ran RegScrubXP and Norton System Works to clean up the registry.

The outcome of this is that the lspcs.dll error is occuring almost everytime I run IE 6.0, resulting in the program having to be shutdown. Very inconvenient to say the

I have getright but don't have that file, sounds like a Cybersitter file.

Try START -> RUN -> REGSVR32 /u lspcs.dll

then search the harddrive for that lspcs.dll file does it exist? If so rename it to lspcs.bak and retry IE.

I did the RUN -> REGSVR32 /u lspcs.dll bit, and received an error message:

"lspcs.dll was loaded but the dllUnregisterServer was not found. This file cannot be registered".

What in the heck does that mean??

"Microsoft Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to closedown...sorry for inconvienienc" ??
REF my above original thread......

I found deleting IE version 6.0.2800.1106 with its SP1 and returning to my original IE 5.50.4134.0600...Sloved all my problems..This accomplished via Add/Remove prog process...

Sounds like you might have uninstalled it, but didn't "really" uninstall it (i.e. enough is remaining to cause you grief.)

Try either going to Start, Run, Regedit, Edit, Find, lspcs and delete each instance you find. Use F3 to continue until finished. Be ever so, and I mean ever so ('specially if you've not done this before) careful, though.

If you're not comfortable editing your registry, try downloading the Smart uninstaller:

This is a nice little package that picks up a lot of things that Add/Remove Programs doesn't show you.
