        Only browsers close for no good reasons? How about other programs?

            Questions:
            -have you ran windows update recently (last few weeks)?
            -when the browser colapses, was it in a site that needs to run something to load: java, some media player, activex, etc?
            -did you get a message saying that "IE will stop working for your protection" or similar, part of which in bold?

                      If your PC is updated and you're getting all browsers blocked in the same sites, then your problem isnt' with the browsers, but windows itself. Are you using XP or Vista?

                          First rule is: dump Vista always!! :))

                          If you had XP, then I'd say your problem was XP's security protection "Data Execution Prevention (DEP)". Some recent changes on it have really fraked it up, and I'm having to switch it of in many of our PCs.

                          I'm not familiar with Vista, but what you describe seems very similar to what happens in XP. So, you may want to try this link, on how to switch this off:

                          Enable or Disable DEP in Vista

                          Be warned: I've never tried this in Vista, so you're on your own.

                              Laptop heating up? :)

                              All do... if you have it on a table, just elevate the back (where the screen is) with something like a small book, to ventilate under it.
