Internet Explorer Closes as Soon as it Opens

Just recently, my firefox started to close when opening a new tab about a fourth of the time. I tried out IE just to see if it was a virus or other malware and found that IE closes as soon as it opens.

I also cannot update McAfee for some unknown reason, most likely the same reason.

Heres my HJT log:
