Error in mshtml.dll for IE8 and Yahoo Messenger

Few days back in my computer yahoo messenger started to crash. I'm using the latest version that is of cause version 10 for yahoo messenger. I have reinstalled the program, but it didn't fix the problem. So, I have check the event viewer on the computer for more details about this problem. This is what I found on the log.





Event Type: Error
Event Source: Application Error
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1000
Date: 12/26/2009
Time: 5:51:44 PM

Computer: MYPC
Description:
Faulting application yahoom~1.exe, version 10.0.0.1102, faulting module mshtml.dll, version 8.0.6001.18854, fault address 0x00209f9c.

To look for a solution I have launched my Internet Explorer 8 web browser and soon found out that it also having a problem displaying web pages. Tab's are reloading and the web browser crashes few times during that. In the event viewer I got this.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Application Error
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1000

Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 8.0.6001.18702, faulting module mshtml.dll, version 8.0.6001.18854, fault address 0x00209f9c.

So, in both cases the fault has been generated by mshtml.dll

I have tried to replace the file which was located on C:\windows\system32 but nothing happen. Then I have uninstalled IE8 from my computer and since then my yahoo messenger working without any problem. Since I'm using Firefox as my default browser I haven't reinstalled IE8 on my computer.
