As for browsers I would suggest getting the new Firefox at http://www.mozilla.org, though if you browser hangs on every download, that obviously won't work. Try running a Windows Update and see if that works.

As eCK0 said, try Mozilla Firefox (http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/), that should work, I also reccommend you do a visus/spyware scan. That sounds like the problem to me. ;)

http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ this is a free online virus scan or you can try here http://www.free-av.com/ you really need to have anti virus installed on your pc these days and i recommend getting a firewall as well if you havent already got one!
