You probably have a BHO or some program running that is causing a conflict
or possibly spyware or a virus.

First - Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - IE7 without
addins

Does that work? If so use Windows Defender to Check BHO's
Use Task Manager to End Process on suspected programs.
