Hi Everyone,
I am crashing at random times when surfing the forums. Is anyone else experiencing this? Below are my PC specs..

Windows Vista Ultimate 64
Internet Exploder 7.0

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

well, i'm not surprised, Surly it's what Internet Exploder was designed to do?
Seriously though, Don't use IE, Firefox, Opera, Anything but IE, It has more bugs than a biology lab. (Deja Vu - have i already used that joke?)

Thats true, I recently built a PC for a Friend, and when it downloaded the Newest version of IE, It kept crashing, I just uninstalled the IE Update and it started working again, but also installed Firefox, Its much better than IE

I'm running firefox right now because back when I had IE it didn't load pages at all and would lock up on certain pages, which caused me to get angry.
The only things I didn't like were that
- the defualt download option had all downloaded files going to the same folder, to pick where you wanted to download you had to change some settings
- The text isn't AA'd like in IE - it's a bit more pixely.

Thanks guys for the feedback on it. Being a .NET dev I know all too well about Exploder being buggy. Just wanted to know if anyone else was having the issue here though. I just built the box and was worried about it since it's like a week old. Thanks again for the feedback...Here I come FireFox

Yeah, I'd say go with Firefox. I use Opera/FF, and FF is definitely better supported in terms of websites looking right. And, with the right plugins, it can have all the nice things Opera does, almost...

Why aren't you using FF in the first place?

It is faster, which is the main reason I still use it after discovering the plugins/settings for firefox to emulate my favorite parts of Opera. But like I said, some things just work better in FF...For one thing, Facebook.

Internet Exploder? Never heard of that, but seeing the name I see why it crashes. I think Microsoft should change the name to that permanently - it's more fitting.
