You may have a horked install of IE7. I suggest reading the following
link...
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install
....and then uninstalling and reinstalling IE7 per Sandi's tips, and using
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx as the installation source,
not Automatic/Windows Update.
