If the problem persists, contact the program vendor. When you click Details, the following error message is displayed: WINWORD caused an invalid page fault in module at 0000:00000013. CAUSE ===== The HTML document may contain a virtual path deeper than two folder levels. For example, if you open the HTML document in Microsoft Internet Explorer and view the source of the HTML document, you may find a virtual path to a graphic file similar to the following: To view the source of the document in Internet Explorer, click Source on the View menu. This behavior occurs because the version of Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) that is installed by Internet Explorer version 4.0 or 4.01 is unable to correctly parse a virtual path that is two or more folder levels deep. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 4.0 and 4.01 for Windows 95. MORE INFORMATION ================ DCOM is a protocol that enables software components to communicate directly over a network in a reliable, secure, and efficient manner. Previously called "Network OLE," COM is designed for use across multiple network transports, including Internet protocols such as HTTP. COM is based on the Open Software Foundation's DCE- RPC spec and will work with both Java applets and ActiveX components through its use of the Component Object Model (COM).
