Hi,
You may have a damaged registry key.

Try this:
With no programs open,
Run REGEDIT and make your way to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
  Software
    Microsoft Internet Explorer
      IntelliForms
       SPW
Export that key (Registry> Export- just in case you wish to undo the
change) then delete it- just the SPW key.
Restart the computer.

If unsuccessful with that, something at
