    I have the same problem on a desktop...the only way I could solve it was to install Firefox and use it instead.

    You might want to try uninstalling IE7 and then installing it again.

    The problem with firefox in vista is that the default theme doesn't look so good, and finding a nice vista-looking theme wasn't easy (ok, it was). Though after finding my present theme I, once again, am using firefox.


    Edit: shouldn't this be in Windows OS and software?
