I ran sfc /scannow and now when I open IE I get this error "Stack Overflow
at line 135." When I click on OK it goes away. How do I get rid of this
aggravating window?

This was all I could find which wasn't helpful:

System File Checker gives an administrator the ability to scan all protected
files to verify their versions. If System File Checker discovers that a
protected file has been overwritten, it retrieves the correct version of the
file from the cache folder (%Systemroot%\System32\Dllcache) or the Windows
installation source files, and then replaces the incorrect file. System File
Checker also checks and repopulates the cache folder. You must be logged on
as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group to run System
File Checker. If the cache folder becomes damaged or unusable, you can use
the sfc /scannow, the sfc /scanonce, or the sfc /scanboot commands to repair
its contents.

Someone suggested I Read: http://www.fatwallet.com/t/28/505051/ but that
didn't help at all - in fact I was already at that site.

Your error message appears to be quite unique. I can find only one
other reference to it, and that is also very recent.

In situations like this the first suspect is some sort of
virus/trojan/spyware infestation that is interfering with the
functioning of SFC.

Make certain your antivirus software is completely up to date, with
the virus definitions not more than a week old and do a complete virus
scan of your computer. Then get a "second opinion" by doing an online
virus scan at one of the free sites such as:

http://www.ravantivirus.com/scan/

Then check your computer for possible spyware by using MVP Jim
