I have a Vaio vgn-nw20ef, with windows 7. Internet Explorer 8 (64bit) has stopped functioning on the PC, I get a message that it has stopped working and needs to be closed. I restored my computer to factory settings and formated the C: Drive which did not help, I reset explorer and disabled all ad ons which did not help either, I installed firefox which shows the same error and does not work, I then ran Malwarebytes Anti Malware which shows zero errors, I ran Spybot which shows no errors and VIT Registry Fix. I further installed Internet Explorer 9 (64 bit) that does not hel either. The following is a log generated by HijackThis .... Please Help:
