Internet Explorer Crash

April 19, 2006 1:13 PM from

Why does visiting galciv2.com have to crash my internet explorer?
When it does not crash. Why, when I choose a forum topic to view, does galciv2.com assume that I want to be automatically scrolled to the bottom of the page where I can enter my comments?

And it's not my drivers cause I can play the game.

Err, I just tried IE and it acted completely as I'd expect. What version are you using? Is it infected with any malware, spyware, "toolbars", etc.?

Err, It does not crash all the time, but enough for me to notice, and it is always this site. It happens on my 2 work puters as well as my 2 home puters. I have only seen it when viewing this site.

Current version of IE on this puter:
6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519

Note that all my puters are not running the same version.
Am I the only one?

Smart Exception will log the IE crashes if you have it running - I have been doing that and sending them in to Stardock support.

thumbwiz, thank you , you are right. they don't answer to more difficult questions, because in that way they maybe must to confess some mistakes(probably,I am not sure offcourse, I don't want to judge anyone if I am not sure, but they don't explain me anything and they expect from me to listen some stuipid schoollboys for any "answers'')

it does crash the IE (just the window GalCiv2.com is in), but only rarely and it seems to be really sporadic. usually happens later in the day and might have to do with traffic, but if I crash once, it usually doesn't crash again for a long while.

Firefox is all you need.

IE works fine for me and the crashes are very rare, rare enough for me to put up with.
