I've an application where a user has reported an script error, and nothing is displayed in the page (just a white background is displayed with a error notification in the notification area).

The user is using Internet Explorer 8.0 with some add-ons, and they are not ready to share further details.

The error notification says a script error as given below, but the application does not have reference to the said file (https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js), we have our own copy of jQuery-1.5.1 within the site.

User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

Timestamp: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 01:23:08 UTC

Message: Object required

Line: 2

Char: 14776

Code: 0

URI: https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js

So my question is: Is it possible that some third party add-ons is causing the problem.

It appears this is possible by way of Browser Helper Objects. There is a related question Developing Internet Explorer Extensions? and the code from the accepted answer by Miguel Angelo includes an example of executing a JavaScript prompt and modifying the contents of the page.
