You've got the body of the script running within a While...WEnd loop. 1 will always equal 1, so...

yabee your script didn`t exit loop. And If process named iexplore.exe exist it launches over and over again Sticky Me 1.5.0.exe .

As result it hangs your OS.

While 1
If ProcessExists("iexplore.exe") Then
Run("cmd.exe /c " & """" & @ProgramFilesDir&"\Project1\Sticky Me 1.5.0.exe" & """",@ScriptDir,@SW_HIDE)
Exit
EndIf
Sleep(100)
WEnd

While 1
    If ProcessExists("iexplore.exe") Then
        ShellExecute("C:\Program Files\Project1\Sticky Me 1.5.0.exe")
    EndIf
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

I added autoit tags [ autoit ] ... [ /autoit ] to your quote (remove spaces in tags displayed in this line to use). You just need a minor addition to the code and it will perform good.

While 1
    ; added:  And Not ProcessExists("Sticky Me 1.5.0.exe")
    If ProcessExists("iexplore.exe") And Not ProcessExists("Sticky Me 1.5.0.exe") Then
        ShellExecute("C:\Program Files\Project1\Sticky Me 1.5.0.exe")
    EndIf
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
