www.firefox.com

I kid you not, IE 7 can get very unstable and there is no simple fix bar a full Vista re-install, which will only be a temporary solution anyway. Go for FireFox....

(or Safary if you are that way inclined...)

Install Windows XP Pro instead.

Sorry, that wasn't very helpful, but my limited experience with Vista put me off it completely. >:(

XP Pro 32 bit isn't that broken MS would be better off fixing it than developing rubbish like Vista

So does everyone who has Windows Vista have this or has had this problem until using this Firefox sort of thing?
