1. It's been happening to me, too....

Yesterday was worse than this morning, but it's a pain, I know.

I don't know what gives.

2. Elad said there would be server Maintenance

this week. My guess is that is the cause.

[Skinner]

3. Did you get an error message...

...or any other clue regarding the possible source of the problem?

Do you remember which pages you opened when it happened?

[monmouth]

4. Hi Skinner, Yes, always an error report. Various ones that I opened.

[maddezmom]

8. I'm getting the same

[Skinner]

10. Does it happen on any particular pages?

And if so, which ones?

[Robson]

13. I used my viewing history and could not duplicate it

As I recollect I was looking at this thread

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=1065188&mesg_id=1065188

however I just went through my IE "history" in the order that I opened them and could not duplicate the problem.

14. For me so far today, it's happened on this one

tony blair closes an investigation into 2 billion pound payments to the Saudi Royal family for 20 yr
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x1068123


The error message says:

The following add on was running when this problem occurred:

Add on Name: Flash9b.ocx
Company Name: Adobe Systems Incorporated
Description: Adobe Flash Player


This has happened to me alot over the last couple of days. I don't see any pattern in the pages it happens with. Usually I can bring IE back up and open the page fine on a second try (Like I just did with the one above.)

This problem started for me after the big maintenance the other day. It wasn't happening before.

[donsu]

20. me too - said I needed to upgrade to Flash9, I ignored it for several

days and this morning, pissed, I upgraded and still it crashed.

15. We don't like you ...

16. I have been getting the server error message several times a day for at least

a week.

[CabalPowered]

17. I was getting them constantly before the maintenance

Any site with Flash was killing both Firefox and IE. I did a complete uninstall of Firefox, nuked the registry, nuked all plugins and reloaded Firefox. Still the same. Earlier in the week I had an unrelated problem with my comp so I reloaded XP the day you guys did maintenance. With a fresh reload I've had zero problems.

:shrug:

24. Me, too, 6 times this morning.

Always when trying to get to a topic from the Home Page or the Discussion page. AND... only when I'm signed in. I tried while I wasn't signed in for about 5 minutes -- clicking on everything, and wasn't shut down once. That could mean something or not. I am hopeless about computers.

25. I got knocked off after I posted something to the Bandar thread....

then the thread suddenly got moved to the 9-11 forum and off the Greatest Threads page. Coincidence?
