Problem: IE crashes while surfing certain web sites, citing ntdll.dll as the problem child. Research indicates that it's due to stack overflow on ActiveX controls that some web sites use. Articles indicate the issue was fixed in previous patches but has rebroken in more recent upgrades.

Article 836506 says there is a fix available, but you have to contact Microsoft at $99.00 per instance in order to find out what that fix actually is. Anyone have any solutions a guy could try?

Setup: Windows 2000, SP4

Troubleshooting steps to date: SP4 patch rollup & reapply SP4. Current version of ntdll.dll is more recent than the version indicated in the article referenced above.

My research indicates turning off (disable) Active Scripting in IE. I am currently testing this, within the last hour, with a client. So far so good.

in addtion to the helpful answer nobugz gave (which is of course very true), I would like to add that these forums are not for technical support i'm afraid, in future, the best place would be to ask over at the appropriate newsgroups:
