All of the machines on our Small Network (35 hosts) are exhibiting the same issue today. Internet Explorer 11 crashes immediately on starting.
The relevant event viewer entry from my own system reports:
Faulting application name: IEXPLORE.EXE, version: 11.0.9600.17631, time stamp: 0x54b31a70
Faulting module name: IPSEng32.dll, version: 14.1.2.8, time stamp: 0x54545048

Report Id: aa8fbcd9-b99b-11e4-a79a-e8039ade38e0
The same faulting module is reported the other systems.
Any idea how this can be resolved?
