I hope someone can help me with these problems I am having. Whenever I close IE7 I get a message saying IE has unexpectedly quit and I get two options; search the internet for a solution or restart the program. The second problem is when I click on certain links that require a new page to open the entire system hands for about 15-20 seconds. It seems it happens on random links and I can't find a common link between the sites. Third problem is on certain pages, mostly Yahoo, when I click on a link instead of opening in the same window it opens in a new window. I have check all IE setting including checking the reuse window in the advanced settings. This also started happening in Firefox also so I fear it might be a registry problem. I have scanned with Adaware, Spybot, Regcure, Norton, and AVG. Any help would be great. I've included a HijackThis file for additional information.
