Internet explorer shuts down

I have a new Toshiba Satellite laptop. It came with Vista and IE 7. When I
close an Exporer window (using the X in the corner) I get a message that says
"Internet Explorer has stopped working and windows is trying to fix the
problem" It thinks for a few seconds and then another box dialog box pops up
and says "Internet Explorer is restarting" It then shuts down every IE
window I have open and restarts. I also found that it does that even when a
program (such as the windows vista download page) opens another window and
closes it automatically. So I can't download the vista updates because it
shuts down explorer each time.

Hi,

Funny enough I too have the same prob when using my Toshiba which too
has Vista installed. Can any1 help sort this problem? It gets quite
frustrating as I am having to restart each time I close a window.

I never got a response but I tried the advice from other posts suggesting
resetting Internet Explorer and it fixed the issue. From IE go to
properties, advanced tab, and click the reset button. It seems the IE on the
tosiba comes with too many add ons. I'm assming one of them is screwing it
up.
