IE 5.5 Crashing Like a Mofo in W2K SP1
I have been getting this recurring error message from Internet Explorer recently saying, IEXPLORE. EXE has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. I can get it anytime.
I have been getting this recurring error message from Internet Explorer recently saying, "IEXPLORE.EXE has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program." I can get it anytime. Alot of times when I'm just browsing message boards on different sights I will get it. I got it while browsing this message board a minute ago again. Then I reopened Explorer to this sights homepage and got it again. I tried once more and it hasn't given me the error in the past few minutes. HEEEELP!!!!!

Well I ran the "Repair IE" option through Add/Remove Programs and dumped a bunch of temporary internet files and cookie ****. That seems to have fixed it. I hope it don't come back.
Well God Damnit they're back again. I got about a day and a half of no errors and then they came back again. Is IE just this unstable??? What the hell could I be doing wrong?
Believe me I always have the latest service packs and updates
I had the same problem PsychoSword, or IE would just freeze, with 100% CPU usage, then I'd have to kill it. Easiest fix was to uninstall 5.5. and go back to 5. I think the difference between 5 and 5.5 is pretty small, not as if you get a dozen new features or anything.
MS seem to have a weird mentality - We have something that works relatively good, now let's fill it with shit and see if we can get more money outta it!@

well IE 6 has a lot of changes done to it, change isn't bad...bad change is bad, good change being bad is something I have never heard of before...
but you just wait until IE 6 is done, people will bitch about it...but let's face it, IE is pretty much the only browser left...Netscape is dead...

I seem to recall that in a lot of cases, errors were being caused by an IE 5.5 install on top of the beta version.

I don't use beta browsers though I guess it could be argued all microsoft products are betas for their next ones
