How to Remove Popups?: How to Fix Problem - Browsers crash on download in Win7?

Browsers crash on download in Win7

When I try to download a file & specify where I want to save it my browser crashes.
As it happens in Firefox, IE9 & Chrome I can only assume it's something to do with the "Save as" dialog in Windows 7, rather than something in the browsers.

If I download to the default location, or open / run the file rather than saving then everything is fine - it's only if I try to change the download location.
It's only been the last couple of weeks that this has happened, which makes me suspect it might be
something from a Windows update

I'm running Windows 7 Professional (SP1) 32 bit on a 3.1GHz Intel processor with 4GB of RAM.
Firefox is my default browser

Thanks for your help Eddie.
I finally discovered (by doing the oldest system restore available) that the security software my bank recommends was interfering in some way.
Once I disabled that everything worked fine again.

Unfortunately the problem I've got with my Access database doesn't seem to have as simple an explanation, but that's a whole separate can of worms!
