Internet Explorer Fails after Last Night Updates

Has been running well on SP1 for some tim

After last night's updates, (3 updates went through shutdown install
and cpl of restarts) IE, upon most starts, gives error message "IE ha
stopped working - a problem caused the program to stop workin
.......... Windows will close program & notify you if a solution i
available

It never notifies, just runs a while and eventually shuts down all I
windows open

Any ideas for fixes

 

Above machine is a newer HP c/w Quad processor, 2 gb of ram, Hom
Premium 32 bit, Sp1 installed a month ag

Problem continues - IE gives above message everytime I start I

Any help greatly appreciate

 

1. Try running IE with no add-ons. Perhaps one of the add-ons you're using
is incompatible with an update.

Run IE7 without add-ons - Start > Run>iexplore.exe -extoff [enter] OR
Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Internet Explorer (No Add-ons)
MS webpage explaining add-ons: http://tinyurl.com/2tro8f

2. If that doesn't work (or you have no add-ons) uninstall the three updates
and see if the problem is now solved. If it is, then you know one of those
updates causes a problem on your system. You might want to check in the
Windows Update newsgroup with a crosspost to the IE newsgroup to see if
anyone else is having that issue.

I uninstalled some updates, got no change, so un-enabled 5 useles
addons like Yahoo bar etc that I hadnt noticed before existed

Then, Bingo!!! It ran true again ... then I reinstalled all updates

THANK YOU!!

 

You are most welcome. My experience with both XP and Vista is to stay away
from all third-party toolbars. I'm glad the issue was resolved for you and
thank you for taking the time to let me know.
