I hate microsoft as much as the next geek, but IE 7 doesn't seem all that bad. They did a good job stealing ideas.
Oh and welcome to a world without microsoft and annoying Apple marketing: Click

That was (is) a clean install of Windows. What happened was the following:
1) I start up IE 7 2) Immediately create a new tab 3) Send first tab to go to google 4) Send second tab to go to EVE forums 5) Start EVEmon
all before IE 7 finishes loading itself into memory
Then - IE 7 becomes unresponsive - it fails to load any web pages. EVEmon also fails to load. Computer becomes sluggish. I Ctrl+Alt+Del to open Task Manager - wait 2-3 minutes as the computer tries to find the resources necessary to do such a task. Task Manager eventually opens. I sort processes by CPU consumption. I notice that IE isn't really eating that much CPU, and not too much memory. I then notice that IE's portion of the swap file is at 1GB and steadily increasing. I take a screen shot and end task.
IE is forced to release it's resources, and EVEmon immediately finishes loading. Internet after that was all borked up - EVEmon couldn't connect to EVE, and IE once restarted can't even find it's way to www.google.com. I open up a command prompt and successfully ping both my gateway and the DNS servers. Meaning that my ISP, and network settings were working fine. Probably some sort of Windows resource was not released properly (perhaps something involving HTTP connections?) and all programs which required an HTTP connection were waiting for the resource to become available.
IMO, I think what happened was there was some sort of resource conflict between IE 7 and EVEmon. Because of crappy M$ programming techniques, this uncovered an infinite loop involving a memory leak. I don't think that it would be likely for EVEmon to be able to cause IE 7 to have a memory leak, since EVEmon shouldn't be able to access IE 7's executable info (without causing a segfault, at least).
EDIT: I'm still waiting for an obligatory DS response. And yes, I should be using Firefox, but my Dad only wanted IE 7 on this computer, so that's what I did.

I use IE7 at work for webdevelopment, and its not that bad. There's some great tools available which work seamlessly with IE7 and we're all happy. Though, I do not like the 2 minute lockdown every time I start IE7, the delay when creating a tab, and the fact that ActiveX components can completely nail your pc. ___________ Out of game eve map

You should try Opera. I've had precisely nil problems with Firefox 2, but I know it gave my sister's PC some jip. Opera did the trick perfectly for her.
I don't know if Firefox just has some compatibility problems with the occasional PC, but if you try both it and Opera, you're guarunteed one of them will work better than IE7....... --------

You can delete the page file if you have a decent amount of memory (2gb +) and that apparently increases performance...

Seriously wouldn't recommend that to anyone testing or using vista,
Got quite a nice rig here, but vista takes a **** load of memory, upgrading to 4GB at the end of the month to get my XP performance back,
As for using opera over IE 7, Im good atm
Have to keep active X off but aside from that its not a bad browser
For the loading times the over guy was on about you need a better comp 0 lag on this,

This is not a typical thing for Internet Explorer 7. I take it you are not using any plug-ins such as accelerators? Did this happen just once? Does it continue to occur? When did it start? Did you scan your computer for viruses/malware/trojans etcetera?

Oh Jesus Christ. This is not a ***** at the op, rather everyone that replied to him vouching for Firefox. I use firefox myself, but I'm not blind. It has its problems, and you know what its biggest problem is amongst geek circles? Its memory leaks.
Replying to a thread saying 'I use firefox' is not the geek I win button, and when the topic's memory leaks, it just makes you look ignorant.

All the firefox fanbois should not even post in this tread. You do know that firefox have got a memory leak as a build in feature, right? A developer or something from the firefox team confirmed that in an intervew!
Ican make Ie7 use 1,5gb ram too, if i open 100000000000 tabs Omg hi mom, im famous now! My ie7 uses 123gb ram!
