IE trouble

Hi, i posted this problem before, i got some help, but it didnt resolve it.. i REALLY need help... heres the original post:
Hi, I'm having a problem with my computer. When I close, or perform some functions in Internet Explorer and Yahoo Messenger the system crashes("blue screen of death"). This problem just came up recently and I'm not sure how to fix it. I have reinstalled each of the kinds of software, and it is still unresolved. I have also done a ScanDisk and Defragmented it various times. I still am not sure how to fix it. Many different blue screen things come up when I press any key to try to exit it, but one that I think may have the information about the problem is "fatal exception OD has occurred at 0028:C0035265 in VXD IFSMGR(01) + 000018A1" but I don't know if that would help. But one thing I do know is that whenever I close Internet Explorer or Yahoo Messenger I have to shut down the computer because the blue screen won't go away. In fact, after I close this window, the system will crash. I have been trying to not use Internet Explorer as much as possible, but its not that easy, sometimes I would rather use this than Netscape. So, if anyone has any help, I would REALLY appreciate it. Thank you.

    Have you tried uninstalling IE5? Go to add/remove programs in control panel and find microsoft internet explorer 5 whatever and click add/remove. It should give you the option to repair it. Also uninstall/reinstall yahoo msngr. Do the uninstall then run scandisk and defrag then reinstall yahoo. When you reinstall yahoo make sure everything is shut down except explorer and systray. (hit Ctrl+Alt+Del once then click one program and end task, repeat until the only thing running is systray and explorer)

    You could try searching at google.com for that exact VXD error and see if you can find any postings from other users with similar problem.

    Ah get born, keep warm
    Short pants, romance, learn to dance
    Get dressed, get blessed
    Try to be a success
    Please her, please him, buy gifts
    Don't steal, don't lift
    Twenty years of schoolin'
    And they put you on the day shift
