Hi,
With the warning that a reset will delete autocomplete data, such as
passwords and you will have to reinstall browser add-ons, work through this
article:
936213- How to optimize or reset Internet Explorer 7:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936213/en-us
Then, you may have a troublesome third-party program which is not a browser
add-on.
936214- How to troubleshoot compatibility problems that affect Internet
Explorer 7 in Windows Vista

Or, this may be a malware problem- adware, spyware, hijacker, trojan, etc.
