Default Random Crashing of Internet Explorer

Sometimes when I press the submit button it freezes all of my Internet windows and informs me I must close the programs. It does post, but I still have to rejoin the website and anything else I was doing at the time. Perhaps this is a bug?

Default Anyone else experiencing crashes like this?

Hosef - If you post to other forums, do you have similar problems on other sites?

I have not received other reports of crashing.

Default Maybe it is just me?

No, for some reason it is only this forum perhaps one of every four or five times i hit submit it closes all explorer applications with an illegal operation.

Default problem is Microsoft

Solution? Get Opera as your explorer.... I think you can download online....

Default More info needed

If you could tell us exactly what page(s) you are going to and what submit buttons you're pressing (prob to post I assume), plus date and time with timezone when this happens to you it would be very helpful. Also, if you could tell what OS and Internet Explorer version you're using (the complete USER_AGENT if you could) that would help also. I'd like to check our logs and see if I trace what's happening. Since you posted this problem, I have tried both Netscape 4.x & 7.1, plus the latest Internet Explorer on several different WinOS systems without any problems. We do use a gzip utility in our webserver and I've seen some websites having problems related to gzip, but I haven't seen it on ours (yet) , where the post says it will be gzipped encoded but isn't, or visa versa. In case you aren't aware, gzip is a standard compression library that works completely behind the scenes in your browser, and certain (older) versions of MSIE were known to have problems in the implementation.

Default Okay :)

Well, if (or when) it happens again, I'll take a screenshot and get the time, etc.

If you could tell me how to find the complete USER_AGENT, I'll be happy to give you that information, too.

Default User-Agent and other info

I'd suggest going to the website http://www.ShowMyIP.com/. It will show your current IP and some other environment variables including the User-Agent. The time when it happens is important because it will help us correlate your problems to data on our server. Btw, we've still only had your one report of this problem so I suspect there's some quirk between a driver and our page layout peculiar to your system. With all the elements in our pages, it may make your browser use a decent chunk of memory. Also, sometimes you can have a partial content file in your browser cache, and when you go to a page with that cached element in it, your browser loads the corrupted local file instead. What this means is you could try clearing your cache manually (delete all temp internet files), and if you know how maybe delete any politicalforum.com cookies (not your other cookies though).
