msvcr80.dll and AVG Safe Search IE add-on

Having problems with some web sites crashed IE with msvcr80.dll error. These web sites are legitimate well known web sites that seem fine one day but crashed on other day that cause the IE to close. After searching the web without much success, finally tried disabling the IE add-on one by one and finally traced the problem with AVG’s Safe Search add-on for IE. This add-on is installed during the installation of AVG 8 anti-virus program.

 

Did not bother to spend more time to figure out what combination of the web content and the AVG Safe Search caused the problem. Left the Safe Search disabled.
