Woody you should start a new thread rather than pinching someone elses, that error message you mention is very common, you can switch it off by going into my computer->properties->advanced tab -> error reporting button then disable error reporting.

This message pops up whenever a windows app crashes and has to close, it may be caused by a variety of issues. Try using Firefox instead of IE.
