Windows 7 Internet Explorer 9 keeps crashing.

It was running fine before, but now it keeps freezing up and I get an error box at the bottom of the screen and I have to click "Recover Webpage" or something to that effect. The problem is that barely works and the tab ends up closing completely or the whole browser freezes. I don't know if this is an issue with the actual browser or with Windows itself cause as I said before, it was working fine until recently. I know the Windows updates have kinda screwed me up in the past though. Anyway, I was hoping that someone here may have some insight that they could share.

My first step would be to disable any toolbars, and any add-ons, that cause these type of problems. I would then run a good cleaner to clean out BHO and other detritus. I use ccleaner and wise registry cleaner, both free apps.
