Rick,
No, it's while I go on to use internet explorer, it's when I use spybot,
adaware, defrag. Anything really intense or not. Sometimes it's right
after I log in my password.
The thing is it never used to freeze(mouse stops, can't do anything), now it
freezes all of the time. I have a new reformatted HD and hardly have any
programs installed. It sounds like it's some faulty hardware. It doesn't
freeze in safe mode.

TIA,
Pat

I'm trying to figure out why my pc doesn't freeze in safe mode.

Most people prefer it that way.

What
drivers are not loaded in safe mode? I can run spybot, adaware, scan
disk
and defrag in safe mode without it freezing. Should I assume that some
driver is not working right when I'm not in safe mode?

What do you mean by "freeze"...

If it's while booting, run Normal Mode (logged) and check C:\Bootlog.txt
to see where things went pear-shaped.
