[Trey]

Has anyone else experienced IE crashes when the forum page first loads?

[Scaryfun]

Not me, works fine.

Hmmm.... IE9 has been giving me weird problems....

[Trey]

Strange thing is, this crash (which happened again today) doesn't create any event log file, it just fails, gives a crash messege, then successful reloads the page.

Try disabling addons? Or are there still no addons for x64?

[Trey]

Just Avast web rep. and flash

IE 9 64-bit crashing? Well, isn't that special?

Could it be ... Satan messing with your Internets?




PS: Use Google Chrome, Trey man

I use IE (since it's integrated into windows), and Firefox with zero add-ons not even java or flash. Firefox I use for searching and browsing sites that might be dangerous. The vast majority of malware and trojans are picked up from infected flash adds and/or through java. I fix computers for a living, which actually means I spend most of my day removing nasty maleware from customers computers.

EDIT: Oh, and I think it's been fixed. I don't know if IE has updated itself or if it was Avast updating its web-rep app what but today the 'enable/disable add-ons' prompt popped up for the first time in a long while. I check, but it was just the same ones as before, I hit OK and closed it, and it hasn't crashed since. Something's been changed causing the enable/disable prompt to pop-up again.
