It sounds like it's running in Safe Mode, but there is one question? Did you download and install IE7? That has caused some problems with add-ons. If you did, you may have a corrupt download. If you do have IE7 and want to keep it, I'd suggest you uninstall it and re-install it. Click on Start, Settings, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs and the Show updates box at the top. When the list loads, find Internet Explorer 7 and click to remove it. Close the control panel and restart the computer. Then go to the Microsoft site and download and install it again.

If you have IE7 and DON'T want to keep it, by uninstalling it and restarting the computer it will revert back to IE6. That may solve your problem.

You can try this, drag the current IE icon to the Recycle Bin and delete it. Click on Start, Programs and see if Internet Explorer is in your list of programs (it should be). Right click on it and select Send to Desktop (shortcut). Then try that shortcut. If that doesn't work, then uninstall because what you have is corrupted.

you are running IE in the safe mode. try to create a new shortcut on your desktop from the originial exe file in the programs folder. that might help.
