Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

I am running Windows XP Home Edition with all the latest updates from Windows Update and the most recent .NET framework update (Service Pack 2). Recently I installed a trial version of Microsoft Visual Studio.net Professional version 2002 (after I updated the .NET framework with Service Pack 2). Ever since installing this I encounter the above error when I try to open Internet Explorer 6.0 and get a similiar message when I use Explore to explore My Computer. I get the error only when I'm on a limited account. When I change the account type to Administrator I no longer get the error.

I've searched the Microsoft Knowledge Base to no avail and I've tried uninstalling the application but that didn't work either. I've also re-installed the application but struck out that way too.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this so that we can once again use limited accounts and browse and Explore happily from within them?
