IE7 blinks and goes away

Can anyone help me with this please?  I am unable to use my PC.

 

I have done a repair of IE7 and then a complete re-install but it is still the same.

 

When I open my home page instead of my usual MSN.com coming up in the address bar I get this:-

 

http://uk.msn.com/?ocid=iehp

 

Then IE7 disappears as soon as I start to type www

 

Could this have anything to do with it please?

It's very good of you to have a go at this. I do hope someone more knowledgeable than us will help as I think it is only a small glitch and it is causing me a big headache.

 

In reply to your specific points:-

 

I don't think it's the keyboard but I did try your suggestion with a different physical keyboard and made no difference. I am not happy with on-screen

keyboards.

 

I did manage to copy and paste an address in on the odd occasion but for what I am trying to do I need two windows open and when I opened the tab for the second window the whole lot disappeared.

 

I have another browser (Chrome) but I need IE for what I am trying to do.

 

Thanks for help

Thanks

 

The link in your email led me to a page that said Sorry we could not find that.

 

I'd really rather not do this as there is nothing wrong with my PC or Malwarebytes  and I haven't had any adware, malware, viruses etc. for ages. 

 

My feeling is that it is only a small glitch and I recall pressing the wrong key or something but cannot remember exactly what I did.

 

Thanks for help.

Thanks. I did not get round to going to the Microsoft support forum but I have fixed it.

 

It was an add-on:-

 

avast!    Online Security   AVAST Software a.s. Browser Helper Object    aswWebRepIE.dll

 

As soon as I disabled it everything is running just fine.

 

Thanks for help
