I just started my computer and a error came up saying:\n\nreader_sl.exe - Application Error\n\nThe application failed to initalize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the application.\n\nWhat does that mean and how can it be fixed?

This program is the Adobe Acrobat speed launcher. Strictly speaking it is not required. \n\nCouple of suggestions:\n\n1) reboot your machine and see if the problem clears, it could be a temporary memory / address space error. If rebooting does not fix it ...\n2) Terminate the application, then run msconfig [ Start / Run / msconfig ], select the Startup tab, locate the reader_sl.exe and uncheck the box then press OK. (You may want to select the option not to be reminded again of this change.)  \n\nAlso, check the Start / Programs / Startup folder for this program (the display name may be different than reader_sl.exe). If you see it there, point at the file (shortcut actually), right-click it, and choose delete. (You could also cut it, then paste it into another folder temporarily if you think you might want to put it back. In either case you are deleting or moving the shortcut to the file, not the original file.)\n\nIf that STILL doesn't fix the problem, or it recurs, refer to these instructions at http://www.file.net/process/reader_sl.exe.html or search for a similar procedure. (I have no affiliation with this site. Caveat emptor.)

Found something that relates to your computer problem, just a different file name. Some instructions on editing the registry to fix the problem. Use at own risk. Be careful if you edit the registry. That can be a very dangerous thing. Just click on the link, and see if this helps.

The XML Parser error comes if either the xml file is bad, or if the xml parser is corrupt or malfunctioning.\n\nYou could try first removing the related program from startup by using the MSCONFIG Utility. Start -> Run -> Type MSCONFIG and Click OK. Goto Startup Tab and look for the relevant program and uncheck it, this will disable it from running the next time you start your computer. Do remmember that every time you make a change in MSCONFIG Utility, the warning window appears on next reboot warning you about the change in configuration. Just check the checkbox in that window saying Do not show this dialog again.\n\nIf you still face xml parser errors from other applications, like opening an xml page from a website in Internet Explorer, then you might think of reinstalling the XML Parser.\nLink for downloading the XML Parser: \nhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=3144b72b-b4f2-46da-b4b6-c5d7485f2b42&DisplayLang=en\n\nIn case you are unable to install the above version, try the little older version: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=28494391-052b-42ff-9674-f752bdca9582&displaylang=en\n\nCaution: Always create a restore point before installing any software which is as important like an XML Parser.\n\nAll the Best!\n\n\nCheers,\nManish

Not having the entire text from the I5/AS400 error message (Pressing the help key on the error code), makes it a little\ndifficult to answer your question.  Here is what I would do:\n1. Try IPL ing the system to see if this corrects your error condition.\n2. It appears there might be an issue with "cross reference\nfile(s) on your system.    You could try working with reclaim storage command -- RCLSTG\n\n-KOZ\nphoenix computer service \nhttp://www.affirmtech.net\nIseries / I5 / AS400 / Windows Server 2003

I know this is not comforting but the same exact thing happened to me ! My Adware (Lavasoft) program window popped up and said something about a program changing my registry.\nI did not feel competent enough to reload Windows so I took it  to a pro to look at....hoping he could salvage it without reloading Windows...no such luck...he called and said that it was necessary to reload Windows.\nAnother reason I didn't want to re-load Windows myself was my computer is several years old so the disk that came with it would be outdated.\nI also found numerous articles in the Microsoft database about the ".lnk" files but nothing that exactly matched mine...or appantly yours.\n\ngood luck

hi\niexplorer.exe is the "Internet Explorer" application...\nit may be in trouble processing...just end the process.. it may happen because of many instances of the application were asked to run by clicking it many times or by hitting the Enter button many times while it is active or when loading a pop-up page from a web page and the Windows Firewall is trying to block it ... or it is trying to load a web page with troubles or the application itself is no longer working properly... it is so known that WinXp and later is a smart system..just end the process and it will work properly after that...if u face more troubles about the same application just update your system by clicking the "windows update" from your start menu....or just download a fresh -new- version of the IE application and install it.... it is important to use IE but it is not critical to be afraid to end the process .... just end it..\n\nand for other processes it is so normal to run many processes...and it is true that some of them slow down the performance of your PC cause they use alot of memory to run...just locate the process that is running under your username and it is so safe to end them if needed but those which are running under system or network service or local service..please dont end...the may affect your system...\n\nabout some answers telling u that if u ended the iexplorer.exe , your desktop will disappear...it is not true..the may mean Explorer.exe...which is Windows Explorer in oldest Windwos system and it is so important to run the graphical Interface u c .. I mean the icons and menues ...etc...\n\njust end the iexplorer.exe but dont end Explorer.exe\n\nenjoy it

Be sure to unistall the framework and vs completly. Otherwise you gotta format because you got the registry messed up.

it seems like some application is initializing while windows is shutting dows, try this, turn off the computer, check if u get the message, then go to control panel, administrator tools, event log and check which application is failing.\nthen go to start-run-msconfig and disable that application from the startup tab. if u dont find it then disable all the unknown applications and click ok nd reeboot. should work.

you can delete your program that uses that. Then re download it to see if it works correctly. There might have been a problem when you first downloaded the program :D

No don't worry about this message it often happens with AVG.\n\nYou probably installed a Microsoft Update that changed the shell32.dll (normally happens if service pack two is applied). The only way I have found to remedy this is to uninstall AVG, and reinstall.

That's called passing the buck.  Oh, that's a windows problem.  No one will admit we made a programming error.\n\nAt any rate...start, control panel, add/remove and look for pathways there.  If it is, repair if that option is there, and try again.  If not, choose remove.\n\nReboot, and download the program again.  If the problem continues after that, check compatibility to make sure it actually runs on XP or perhaps is designed for a different operating system.

It means that the startup built in test detected a problem. Could be memory.\n\n**********************************************************\n\nDid you get this solved??

If your program is not genuine (windows wording) do not send any error reports or request updates. If you do either they will put an icon on your tool bar and keep reminding you to go genuine.  They also shut off your firewall. Sorry I couldn't give you more information but thought this might save you from problems with old Bill Boy.

This means, literally, there is not enough system memory available to run the application.\nTo fix this you could install more RAM, but a better solution is to increase the size of the paging file.\nIn XP this can be done by right clicking 'My computer' --> properties --> advanced. Then under 'performance' press settings. Go to advanced again.\nUnder virtual memory press Change.\nThe easiest thing to do is press 'system managed size' and press set.\nrestart you computer to apply the changes and it should be ok.\nIf you are running a different operating system then just go to help and look for 'Virtual memory' and follow what it says.\n\nEDIT: Just noticed you specified windows ME. Follow this link for more specific information:\nhttp://kb.iu.edu/data/akpr.html

Ok this is one of two things.\n\nFirstly, you may have to run the program using 'Program Compatibility Wizard' (Start, All Programs, Accessories). This has an 80-90% success rate.\n\nSecondly, the error message you are getting is quite common on XP after certain Spyware or Virus processes are removed from your PC. It is easy to correct see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324767 for details of how to repair. \n\nIf you don't have virus and spyware protection, get some NOW.

That file is like " Yahoo install helper" . dll and was used to up-date Yahoo to your new IE browser. If all is working it may be dumped. Where did you find it, in a temp folder or down load folder? Still, was used for the up-date and now (if all Yahoo services have been up-dated) is just another left over .dll.
