Whenever I open a new tab and then try to close it my computer (PC-Vista Home Premium) freezes up. When I click on the X to close the tab the tab turns green and then stays visible. So far the only way I have found to fix the problem is to uninstall the update. This is getting extremely tiresome as now every time I turn on the computer I get the notice that updates are available and IE 8 update is the only one checked. I've tried unchecking the IE 8 update and proceeding but that seems to end the update session.

I'm not looking for a mac v. PC, Vista v. XP , IE v. Firefox et al debate; just a little insight.

Is there some setting I'm missing?
You need to test in no add ons mode. Rather than go into it, here are good instructions:
