Downloading a registry cleaner and cleaning the registry unfortunatly didn't solve the problem.

So a bit of searching around online tells me that the problem file (idriver.exe) is something SH3 uses as part of it's autoinstallation. I located the file in program files/common files although i saw there were 2 entries, idriver.exe and idriver(2).exe so i deleted the one with the (2) and tried again...Same problem...Keeps crashing when i click the browse button. Looking back at c:/program files/common files (actually it's program(x86)files) i see the second idriver.exe has respawned so i delete both examples (after copying the original and pasting it to a temp directory) and tried reinstalling sh3 again. Same problem!
Looking back at idriver.exe directory i see 2 more examples of idriver.exe!

I used the reg cleaner you suggested HW3 but i guess whatever is messing about with idriver.exe is either nothing to do with the registry or it's buried in there and TN RC 2011 can't find it...

Has anyone else got any ideas?
