ielowutil.exe runtime error

Although I never run IE, I am continually getting a pop up error
message stating that ielowutil.exe has caused a runtime error. I'm
running Win 7 64 bit on a dual core processor with 8 G ram. Nothing
I've tried has been able to get rid of the error msg. Any suggestions
would be appreciated.

Hi, jhmmssm.

I've never seen that error, but it took Bing only a few seconds to get about
8,000 hits for ielowutil.exe. It's a legit part of IE - and still included
in both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of IE9 RC (Release Candidate).

Perhaps your copy of the file has been damaged somehow. My guess is that
you should run the System File Checker: sfc /scannow

Please let us know the results of SFC.

No luck. SFC found no corrupt files. Any other suggestions? Thnx!
