Try starting IE7 without Addons: Click on Start Menu, Programs, Accessories, System Tools then Internet Explorer (No Add-ons)
If that works, click on Tools then Manage Addons and disable them a few at a time until you find the one causing the problem.
You could also try Resetting IE7 to installation defaults

Hi Bwest
I edited your post, because you posted your email address.
There are some reasons for these. Most importantly, spam-
bots scour sites like this in order to collect email addresses
to mail spam. Secondly, this is a open forum, meaning all
should benefit. Providing help over email defeats the purpose
of a open forum.
Hope we have your understanding on this.

Try entering the following (cut and past) into Start / Run: "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
Include the double quotes. If that opens IE7 okay then the problem is with the link or links to IE7 and there are fixes available for that. See here: EXE-LNK fix - #12 on this page, left column. Got this from Ms. Eagle.

Rich, It seems I do not have a "Reset IE settings button" under advanced settings. I followed the instructions from the MS Website link you sent, but when I click on Run it opens a box titled "Internet Properties" instead of "Internet Options". I clicked on the "Advanced" tab, but i do not see anything that says "reset Internet Explorer settings". The only thing there is and it is located at the bottom of this box above the ok, cancel and apply boxes, is "Restore Defaults". Is this the same thing? I clicked it and then restarted my computer. I tried opening IE again, but no luck. I am still having the same problem. Any more suggestions? Your help is much appreciated.

You are either not running IE7 or it is only partially installed. You must be running IE7 to see the RESET option. If you are running IE6 you will only see the "Restore Defaults" option. This is NOT the same option as the "RESET" button.
The fact that you detected anything with MalwareBytes means that you should read here and post a new topic here in order to have a malware expert clear your machine of any infections. A problem with Internet Explorer is probably the most common indication you may be infected, and the MalwareBytes scan only confirms that.
