Hi,
Which version of Windows? (Including SP level- SP1,SP2,etc.)
Which (specific) version of Internet Explorer? (IE> Help> About - eg.
7.0.5730.13)
- - -
Start IE without add-ons from:
Right-click the IE icon on the desktop. Choose Start without add-ons.
or
Programs> Accessories> System tools> Internet Explorer (no add-ons)
If the problem goes away it's being caused by a browser add-on.
For troubleshooting information see:
928426- Internet Explorer 7 may exit immediately when it includes an add-on

With the warning that a reset will delete autocomplete data, such as
passwords and you will have to reinstall or re-enable browser add-ons, work
through this article:

Hope this helps,
