I also suspect the spyware/adware issue and urge you to install a firewall as well as use firefox and stop surfing to nasty sites.

I would reccomend this site.

I had a major virus on my laptop about a year ago, and these guys managed to help me get rid of it. Top class advice fair play.

Hows about giving some details now that you've seen so many people willing to help?
😕

I mean, if your hard disk is about to give up the ghost, for example, no amount of anti-virusing will help it. 🙁

Try a different browser - firefox preferably, and see if it still crashes.
I suspect not.

btw is it IE6 or IE7?

Windows 2000/XP does not crash unless you :-

- install dodgy programs and drivers (Video card drivers and sound card drivers are likely culprits)
- have a corrupt registry
- you yourself have deleted system/program files

Try using the help forum, that's the RHP tech community you are looking for and was set up for, but then most of the RHP helpers are already here.

Overheating is the biggest cause, in my experience. Followed by dodgy RAM.
