I get the above heading and a fix button, which when pressed, gives a box
that tells me that
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close
the program and notify you if a solution is available"
and in the mean time, my Windows Vista Business is good for what? nearly
every program that requires an internet connection now blocks my access. I
need a fix now not "if a solution is available"

Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start
IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

1. Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons;

2. Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer
(No add-ons).

Does the problem persist if you Reset IE7 Settings (RIES)?

Have you tried using Run As Administrator. Right click IE icon and select
that option.
