Cross-Site Scripting - (HACK) a way out

I came across to this discovery when i was affronted with the problem of trying to communicate TWO sites on different domain/server and some parameters need to be passed.

How to get rid of VB Script Just-In-Time Debugger Error

Lately i have been pestered with a lame error every time my Windows starts up. The “VB Script Just-In-Time Debugger Error” shows up and it would terminate the explorer.exe process upon clicking OK. Somehow something went wrong in the system but the error does not specifically says what it is. I don’t have a clue how to resolve it.
