Win98 visual c++runtime message

[AuntieJoey]

Hi all, I've searched if this message has been posted before,but do not see any reference. This is hubby's comp at work and they have no net access.
The only info I have is its a Win 98 OS
When going into any program a pop up message as follows appears:

Windows98
Microsoft Visual C++Runtime Library
Program: C\Program Files\Internet Explorer\\explore.exe
Application has requested runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
contact the Applications Support Team

Many thanks in advance for any advice
