Internet Explorer closes before it opens all the way!!

I read that you're supposed to restart in safe mode, and use spybot search & destroy, I've done that, but I can't get ad aware to download on my pc! I've tried a lot, that's what's got me looking for an answer. I've been using ad aware for at least the past year, and it wasn't working properly, so i uninstalled it and tried to re-download it, and it will not load.
I did install hijack this:

I also can't run a scan from IE b/c it won't stay open HELP

Reboot into Safe Mode. Run HiJack This and select the entries listed below. Click the Fix button.


You have a lot of games listed in the O16 section of your log. If you didn't install them get rid of them.

Okay I did that, the 04 ones didn't show up when i was in safe mode so I got rid of them and some of the games in the 016 section when I was back in normal mode. It still won't open and here's the hijack log:

Get firefox. and stop having all browser troubles.

If they can't open IE, then how are they going to download Firefox?

Try uninstalling the Google toolbar. You can do that from the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs. I had this issue with one computer and finally looked at my event logs when IE crashed and discovered it was the Google Toolbar that was causing it. After I uninstalled it and rebooted, IE opened just fine.

If that doesn't work, try opening IE and let it crash. Then go to your event viewer (start/run and type eventvwr) and look at your application log and system logs for errors and warnings at the exact time of the crash.

//I'd also look at uninstalling IE8 and fall back to IE7

IE8 is beta and buggy at best.

I've been using firefox already. That's how I get on here But I will try the other things there. I'm not too worried about it, but I am curious as to whether or not IE is affecting whether or not I can install ad aware on my pc? Ad aware keeps telling me that it cannot connect to the server (or something along that line, it's been at least a few days since the last time I tried to install it) and can't finish installing because of this
