Yahoo launch crashes windows

I always get a Microsoft Error when I play Yahoo Launch Radio and then go to another website. It will play just fine while I remain in the Yahoo Launch website. I have a broadband connection, my memory is 512k and I checked with my provider to make sure they weren't throttling my bandwidth. So I know none of these are the culprits. Any ideas? Below is what the error box says and the error specifications. Thanks for your help. Matthew.

Go to tools, internet options, advanced tab.

Uncheck enable third party browser extensions.

Click ok
Close all instances of IE and try it again.

 

Have been getting the same error pretty regularly with launchcast via yahoo messenger.
Seems to have only started since i updated yahoo. I use Firefox as my browser so currently cant open the plater seperately. Yahoo regularly crashes, but will then play for ages with no probs.
Spooky! lol

 

I tried unchecking the enable third party browser extensions but Yahoo Launch still isn't working. This is weird cause I'm having no other problems with my computer. I bought my computer through ebay and it came pre-loaded with xp pro. Could my windows software have a problem or if it's pirated could Yahoo not be recognizing it or something like that? Thanks for your help. matthew.
