internet explorer crashing

I have Vista 64 and IE8 and I get frequent crashes in sites like Amazon or
forum sites. Something freezes when that part starts to load. I have to
restart ie after. Is there a way to tell what is freezing it? Thanks

Start by running IE in no-add-ons mode. If everything works well, then one
of your add-ons is the culprit and should be uninstalled.

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).

Hi, this is Feran with the IE Outreach Team. I would first try managing your add-ons as Malke suggested. If this does not work, then you may want to try uninstalling then reinstalling IE8. Internet Explorer 8: Help and support
Uninstalling will revert you to your previous version, then reinstall IE again from the Microsoft site. This has helped many people having issues with IE8.
