Internet explorer crashes randomly.

IE 7 randomly closes and leaves the following entry in the event log.

Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 7.0.6000.16512, faulting module msvcrt.dll, version 7.0.2600.2180, fault address 0x00036edd.

There are many entries like this for different dlls like, mscvp60.dll, ruslt.dll.

What should I do to stop my IE from crashing?

msvcrt.dll and mscvp60.dll are genuine and valid windows files, but i could not find any info on ruslt.dll....can you search on your system and post back the location where it's residing currently.....may be the program which uses this specific dll has problems with IE7 and you need to uninstall the program or disable this particular dll which may be attached to IE7 as a BHO.
AcmeWidget, any update?

as of now i have been able to stop the problem  by disabling an add on.
lets hope it stays that way
the add on was ruslt.dll ... not sure how it got enabled
AcmeWidget, glad you found the cause of the problem.
