Can you give me a specific link that pops this error?

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 <!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;}

The information you have given is really useful.

First, do all your Windows updates, if you haven't already. Second, WTF, guys? Internet Exploder? Switch to Firefox, or if on a Mac, use Safari. In fact, if you don't like FF, use Safari even on Windows. I am sure there is an actual cause/solution to your error, but honestly, why use IE, ever, except to update Windows? It is the single worst browser in existance, with constant security holes being found; the FBI suggests stop using IE, and I would think they know something about security.

Never mind that IE, or Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom thinks that they know better than the experts in the community. They make their own 'standards'. They ignore CSS specifications set by the W3C who write the international standards for the world wide web. How many 'hacks' are needed to make up for IE shortcomings? myrroddin is absolutely correct, use an alternative web browser. Firefox, Google chrome, Safari, anything other than IE.
