I had the same problem. I tried for two months to figure out the cause . I
had every conceivable spamware program downloaded. Finally I installed
Monzilla Firefox brower. No more crashes and it's got so many more features
than IE.

I had the same problem. I tried for weeks to figure out the cause .
Probably spent 200 hours looking for the solution. I had every
conceivable spamware program downloaded and googled everything I could think
of. No luck. . Finally I installed Monzilla Firefox browser. No more
crashes, awesome browser, and it's got so many more features than IE.
Since it's free, developers are including some wonderful add ons for it too.
