I've come across this problem when Internet Explorer 8 tries to load a page it doesn't like.
What page does it try and open when it launches?

Bit of a long shot, but try going into Internet Options (via Control Panel) and select 'Use blank' in the Homepage section.

You could also try downloading 'Microsoft Fix it Center' which has a troubleshooting action for 'Internet Explorer freezes or crashes'. From the description it looks for misbehaving plug-ins which you say you've disabled, but maybe worth a try.

Failing that, try uninstalling/reinstalling Internet Explorer 8. With Windows 7 this is done from:
'Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows features on or off'.
Deselect Internet Explorer 8 and reboot.
