Internet Explorer 8 Keep Crashing

[Squid_uk]

Hey guys!

Seem to be having a problem with IE8, if I have several tabs open and I close one I get the message saying that IE has stopped working and has to be closed but when I choose close option nothing happens and I can carry on viewing the pages tha were already loaded! However the main problem is when using www.spikedhumor.com when viewing nearly all videos IE crashes everytime and if I restart the program and choose the option to restore previous tabs the same will happen again!

Is there anyway I can stop this from happening?

Does this happen at the beginning of the computers day, I mean does this happen after you have been surfing for hours, running multi programs and/or at the beginning of the boot day? If so it could be a heat issue and the drive of the CPU (and your showing a dual core CPU) causes the crash. Could be bad sectors in HD as the OS is running on causing it to freeze up on a webpage. Have you tried another browser? Something small like K Melon? I don't use IE at all, except when forced to do so. To many browsers out there that are much better IMHO.

MOVIEGEEK I have tried uninstalling and using IE 7 but still getting the same problem.

16mmJunkie The problem can occur at anytime not matter how long the system has been turned on for

EDIT: I've given firefox a go and so far its all good!

Well it sounds like you might have SOLVED this!! Which is great! Firefox is a very good browser and should work with most sites. Glad I could be of some small help. Enjoy your online viewing 8) .
