IE is a steamy load of poop. Use Mozilla Firefox dude!

IE6 too! Usually after being logged in for a while and especially with several pages open. Damn annoying when you can't remember what linked you to the pages you were viewing... :

Like they said Mick. Toss the Windows Internet Exploder and use Mozilla or Opera.

Or at least update to IE8, that seems a little more stable from the times that I have used it.

Still I am a Mozilla (Pimpzilla : ) user and it is a hell of a lot better than IE8.

give google chrome a whirl.

But I must say again, update your java runtime environment (jre) and ensure you have the latest flashplayer.

Mick, get Firefox here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

You can import all of your IE bookmarks etc into Firefox after the installation has finished. Good luck wid it.

I have the same problems with IE6.
If I've got a few AFF windows on the go, then I load another site that utilises Flash (V8 Supercars.com.au for example) it'll crash.
I've since swapped over to Mozilla, and haven't had a problem.

I'll add my 2cents in for Google Chrome as well. Have used nothing else since it was released and am very happy with it. This isn't my first alternative browser either previously I've used Firefox, Opera, Kmeleon, just to name a few (can't remember the rest lol) ....

Chrome is a winner for my money
