A typographical error (often shortened to typo) is a mistake made in, originally, the manual type-setting (typography) of printed material, or more recently, the typing process. The term includes errors due to mechanical failure or slips of the hand or finger, but excludes errors of ignorance.

There are a lot of people who type “google.con” instead of “google.com” in the address bar and this is one example of a typo. If you always commit this kind of error, I recommend you to install URL Fixer, a Firefox add-on that can auto-correct your errors you enter on your address bar, or you can have it ask you before making any corrections.

How to use URL Fixer:

1. Install URL Fixer. Once installed, restart your browser.

2. From now on, it will fix errors you type in your address bar. For example: “youtube,con” instead of “youtube.com”.

3. If you want URL Fixer to auto-correct your errors, without asking for your confirmation, you can do it by right-clicking on the address bar and uncheck Confirm corrections.

This is a very simple but a must-have plugin for every Firefox users. I’m sure everyone will find it very useful.

Even when you uninstall and re-install the application, it wouldn’t fix the problem. One of the reasons why this problem occurs is because you used the pirated version of Microsoft Office and you’ve recently installed the latest updates.

Is there a way to fix this? Yes there is! Some people are able to resolve this error by using system restore but here’s a simpler way to fix this problem.

The file that is causing this error is MSO.DLL located at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE11 for Office 2003 and C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12 for Office 2007. All you have to do is to search for the older MSO.DLL file in your computer and copy it, replacing the current one in Program Files. Some people found two versions of MSO.DLL in C:\WINDOWS\Installer\$PatchCache$\Managed\…..

If you can’t find the other backed up MSO.DLL file in your computer, you can just delete the current MSO.DLL file from Program Files and then do a repair or reinstallation of Microsoft Office 2003 or 2007. That would restore the older version of MSL.DLL from the installation CD.
