    Internet Explorer 8 stopped working after update, Windows Vista

    My toshiba laptop running with vista and all Windows updates, when I go to the net with internet explorer 8 I have a small dialog box telling me "Internet Explorer has stopped working, Windows will close the program and tell you if a solution is available ". Sometimes I worry that since one month and not going. I am handling this and the problem remains the same and it's really painful to see all windows shut one after the other. Thank you for all info

    Try this solution. If you have many crashes of the Explorer, you can disable this feature:
    1. Click Start -> Click on All Programs ->Click on Accessories
    2. Right click on "Command Prompt" and Click on "Run as administrator"
    3. Paste this command in the prompt window:
    4. bcdedit.exe / set (current) nx AlwaysOff
    5. Press enter, the following should receive "Operation successful"
    6. Restart. The DEP feature is now disabled.
    7. To reactivate if necessary, so no conclusive result, same procedure
    8. bcdedit.exe / set (current) nx AlwaysOn

    Try restoring your system if possible by choosing a date earlier than that or is your problem occurred, in general I recommend the day before, with a bit of luck it could solve your problem. I think that there is some kind of update on your windows system so i would advice you to get this update uninstalled by restorations.

    I think that your hard drive must contain errors, so I advise you to do this:
    1. Click the Windows logo bottom left,
    2. Then on all programs -> Accessories
    3. Place yourself at the command prompt, right-click it and Run As Administrator, the window should darken and it should ask you to continue if you are administrator of the PC, otherwise you will have a login and password Administrator
    4. MS-DOS window, then hit "chkdsk / F / R" without quotes of course, then it should ask you if you want to check the contents of your disk at startup, then you will have to respond to O Yes.

    I too have the same problem. I checked my PC with CCcleaner, NOD32, Spy Bot, Malwarebytes. Let my task bar and then plant the whole computer so I am forced to restart: Either it crashes also when I start => Computer in Safemode it marks well. Finally it not crash. Here I hope someone has a walkthrough.

    First thing to check: is it a virus then perform full disk scan, or malware spyware (antivirus find spyware in principle if not scan with windows defender or antispyware)If not a virus then delete the last one to one programs installed and tested each time to see who is involved For me, the problem was due to a program suite for my Sony camera: I deleted all the software.
