Internet Explorer has stopped working

I have not too long ago upgraded to Vistta Home Premium 32-Bit and there
something that is not a problem but IS DRIVING ME CRAZY! Sometimes when I
close Internet Explorer it says "Internet Explorer is not working. Checking
for a solution to the problem" I am sure there is no problem. If anyone has
an idea why this is happening and how to fix it please reply! Oh and just
in case I don't understand it SIMPLE ENGLISH PLEASE. One more thing it
didn't do it in Windows XP.

Possibly you have an add-on that is incompatible with Vista. Try running in
no add-ons mode. If everything works well, then add each add-on one at a
time until you find the culprit.

MS webpage explaining add-ons: http://tinyurl.com/2tro8f

Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons; or

Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No
add-ons).

Otherwise, post in the IE newsgroup for help with that program.

M$ loves this "feature" so much that they carried it over to Win 7.
