The first thing where you went wrong is by having McAfee installed on your system.I would not be surprised if it is the one that is causing this issue. McAfee is not very compatible with Vista
Secondly this issue would be more appropriate to be posted to the IE7 newsgroup where you have many experts on IE7 to help you
