I was experiencing a crash of IE every time I browsed to a web page. It didn’t matter what webpage I visited, it just crashed.

My event log showed the following error:

Event ID:      1000
Description:
Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 8.0.6001.18865, time stamp 0x4b077416, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e03821, exception code 0×80000002, fault offset 0x000311d7, process id 0xc54, application start time 0x01ca83bd0c8547ac.

Uninstalling the Flash Player v10 plug-in resolved the issue.
