Can't open new links in IE

I haven't installed anything new on my PC in months - Windows updates apart.

When my PC is freshly booted, I can open IE8 and open new tabs etc
After about an hour, IE will open a new tab, but no content is displayed -
the little circle at the top of the tab just goes round forever.
If I open a new session of IE8 - then I can open the web-page without
problem.
But, after another hour or so even a new instance of IE will not open any
webpage at all and my only option is to re-boot

Frustrating having to re-boot every hour!

I thought it may be my PC Tools (free) anti-virus for Vista and changed to
AVG, but it has made no difference.

Any ideas please?

Thanks
Pete

Hi Pete,
Try disabling "SSV HelperClass" Add-On and see whether that helps.

Thanks very much!
Worked a treat!
Not a very helpful Helper!
Are there any disadvantages disabling this add-on?

Cheers
Pete

Glad to hear that it solved your problem and Thanks for the feedback.
I haven't come across any disadvantages and I'm not sure what it does either.

Well, it's started up again, exactly as before.
The IE SSV HelperClass add-on remains disabled, but got exactly the same
problem as before....

Any suggestions?
Thanks
Pete
