Problems with IE crashing

I have noticed lately that when I go on the site a box pops up saying explorer is shutting down the program and it closes down the site??
This seems to happen 9 times out of 10 now; it seems to be only this site, as it does not happen on anything other site I go on???

Re: Gallery software updated

This is what the box says.

Explorer has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

I am noticingthis is happening more and more, and it took me several times to get on to post this???

hrm, I have no idea why that would happen Curt - what version is the browser? Is java and flash installed correctly?

It just keeps re starting the program, over & over?? I am looking at it on my laptop (using only explorer)??
But as I said, no other site or program is doing this???

Interesting. This just happened to me, too. Going from one post to another, it just started cycling back and forth, not stopping. That was using IE, too. I shut it down, and switched to Firefox, and it's all good. No problems. I use Firefox 4.0 Beta 2.

I've witnessed the crashing happening on IE using two different computers, both IE 8. I can't seem to isolate the problem. I'll post here if I find anything.

haha, yeh I normally don't use IE, so I wouldn't have noticed when it started happening.

My best guess is it's something that has to do with a javascript file or an ad that uses flash. Very tricky if it's an ad since they are different on every page load.

You are aware that if IE WASN'T crashing, you would have a problem. I think that IE8 is Microsofts answer to leveling the playing field by making everyone get FireFox.
That is how I fixed my IE probs.
Now everything is smooth as chicken teeth.

The problem seems to be fixed, as I have not had a problem in the last little while??
It seems to happen once and a while, not sure why??
