Try the following-
1. Try resetting Internet Explorer. In Internet Explorer, go to Tools > Internet Options. Select the Advanced tab and click Reset button. Confirm the reset operation.
If this fixes your issue, enable your browser add-ons (Tools > Manage Add-ons) one by one. If you encounter a hang after enabling a specific add-on, just disable it and enable the rest. Otherwise continue to Step 2.
2. Try using Clean Boot. If doing a clean boot fixes your issue, narrow down what causes it.
For more information about Clean Boot, how to use it and how to find out what is causing problems, see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.
3. If the above does not fix your issue, you can try using System Restore.
4. Finally, you can also using System File Checker utility. Open a command prompt with administrative privileges (Click Start Orb > type
Command Prompt in search > right-click Command Prompt from search results and select Run as Administrator).
Now type the following command and let it complete.
sfc /scannow
5. If you are using Internet Explorer 7 or 8, you can try upgrading to a newer version if you want.
You can also try a virus scan. Or do a repair install from your Windows disc.
If you want to use Google Chrome only, then you can try points 2, 3 and 4 above (as they are system-wide and not browser-specific) and can even try to remove Chrome completely (along with browsing data) and re-install it.
