New tab causes I.E. to shut down

When I am on a web site and open a link it contains the new tab it opens in
frequently bringup the following error message":-
"A problem caused the program tostop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"

I have never ever received any such solution from Microsoft and hope that
someone can tell me a cure for this annoying behaviour.

Re: New tab causes I.E. to shut down

Did you check Problem Reports and Solutions applet in Control Panel for any
possible reasons and solution?
Could be a corrupted Add on, click Tools > Manage Add Ons and check for any
recently installed Ad ons that might be causing the problem. My
recommendation also would be to go to Tools > Options > Advanced (tab) >
under 'Reset Internet Explorer settings' > click 'Reset'.

I agree with Andre: this is almost certainly due to a dodgy Add-on.

My thanks to all those who have replied with possible solutions.
I will work my way through these and see if I can find the culprit!
