IE7 + WMP + Mail + Live Mail shutting down all running under Vista

[Chris Maddogz]

Firstly all email /virus scanners were removed

In IE7 turned off Protected Mode
In Internet Options/Security/Custom have enabled automatic prompting for
downloads - enabled file downloads but when prompted for the download and
clicking on Save - IE7 shuts down.

Windows Media Player shuts down when Open is clicked

Mail & Live Mail shut down when Attach is clicked

Also using Infranview ( a small image converter) - shuts down when Open
clicked

Something keeps shutting all these programs down. What is it??

The what is it was the browsing technique.

All these problems have been solved by just one action.

In IE7/Tools/Internet Options/Advanced (at the bottom clicked on Reset) &
reset all the settings - restarted IE7.

Now Windows mail "Attach" works fine

WMP Open File works fine

IE7 Downloading a File/Save

Obviously the "browsing" technique as it is in XP is also in Vista and thus
it is essentilal that IE operates correctly to enable other Programs
functionality to operate.
