The most common cause for this error is that Internet Explorer is unable to access the .dll files it requires. Those are libraries used when programs need to communicate with each other or share data, and many applications depend on them to function. Other possible causes are add-ons or plugins that are crashing or a damaged cache.
Updating or resetting Internet Explorer usually fixes those problems, but if one of them persists, you can also try disabling your add-ons, disabling software acceleration in the settings or resetting your security zone.
