Is it just me or is DU hanging up Explorer?

[flamin lib]

I get a lot of error messages and "this program needs to close now" BS. No real rhyme or reason to it. Sometimes opening a post, sometimes using the back button and sometimes just 'cuz.
on edit:
Nevermind, just read the down time post from the admins.

7. I've been shut down 3 times also

Something about an error in the Adobe Flashplayer. I think that's the culprit.

10. Bigtime

Some have had sucess deinstalling and then reinstalling Flash. Some of us gave up and went to Firefox for DU (I have to use IE for some things).

11. i'm sure you've heard this a million times now -

but why not switch to firefox?

Now - before anyone tells me "but i need ie now and then!" - here's the solution for that -> http://ietab.mozdev.org/
(i use ietab, and it works like a champ)

13. Not hanging up, just abending Explorer. Did just as I clicked on your thread.

14. That's one of the reason we changed to Foxfire.

17. Firefox is great

I don't even think about MSIE anymore.

15. It's been happening to me a lot as well.

The usual culprit in my IE7 has been Adobe Shockwave when using tabbed browsing.
I never had this trouble until a couple of weeks ago when I downloaded the latest version of Shockwave.

16. No problems here.

18. Funny you should ask.

I'm running Firefox on a Mac and Firefox just crashed. Hmmm.
