Freecorder 4 error: has encountered a problem and must close

The message ' --------' has encountered a problem and must close (where '--------' = name of a popular music source) pops up whenever I click on the Record Audio button on my toolbar. Another message: Windows Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and must close.

Then the music source application closes, but Windows IE usually does not close , and the record audio box opens and waits for an audio stream.

I have only encountered this problem since reinstalling Freecorder 4 today.

Thanks for any help.
