I get the attached error when I first go to open IE8 (x86) but not at any time subsequently. It is followed by the Internet Explorer must close etc. However my session stays open, so it's as if a phantom browser session was invoked simultaneously.

R6025 - pure virtual function call

Windows is fully up to date with all updates, both critical and non-critical and I've searched this error on the web and have come up blank with what to do to stop it other than uninstalling an add-on which I use constantly.

It happens only in my Vista Ultimate SP2 x64.

The only thing that seems to coincide in the Event Viewer is...

So it appears to be caused by Google Toolbar, but as I haven't seen it before and it doesn't seem to happen in Windows 7 where I also have Google Toolbar, I'm wondering if anyone has a clue as to why this is happening. It's really just an annoyance rather than a major problem.
