Hi first I will need a look see :)

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.
  • Right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Select additions at the bottom
  • Press Scan button.

  • It will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from.
  • Please attach both logs generated.

Save this as fixlist.txt, in the same location as FRST.exe

OK could you press windows + X keys together
On the menu that appears select Command Prompt (Admin)
A black box will open
In the box type or copy/paste :

sfc /scannow

Then press enter
On completion reboot and try IE for a while and see if it behaves itself
