That file being dated 2008 is not a problem.

The build you have appears to be the latest.

It's possible some external (security) application may be grabbing hold of the file while Impulse is attempting to install it. Do you have anything else running that may possibly be interfering?

Have you turned off the antivirals and firewalls? Then, after installation, don't forget to turn them back on!

Only do this if your computer is on a private network (hooked up to a router with NAT) and not directly connected to the internet.

It's most likely your graphics driver that causes the crashes. I've had a few explorer crashes since I installed 7, but none of them has been related to WB.
