New site crashes IE7
New site crashes IE7
Hi Yall
sorry to complain but in the past week or so whenever I go to the portable freeware site IE7 locks up(does not respond) it never did this before-I use xp and cant install IE8 as I tried once and it did not work at all,I have all my extensions turned off so just wondering if anone else has seen this behavior?When the browser does not respond if I close it,then reopen it the site works fine??
I cant use firefox as I have limited ram and it does not work so good,I actually do yuse it on occasion and you site opens fine in that browser-I hate chrome and its derivatives so....any help wuld be cool.
Thanks Guys
Rod

There's a trick to cap ram usage: http://www.lifespy.com/2007/firefox-qui ... ram-usage/rodger123 wrote:I cant use firefox as I have limited ram and it does not work so good
Assuming that this is an IE 7 issue (I can't verify) then according to http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_explorer.asp we are currently excluding 1.2% of the web.rodger123 wrote:IE7 locks up(does not respond)
Sidenote: pleased to see IE 6 is down to 0.3% usage. Good riddance.

Re: New site crashes IE7
Strange solution, glad you found it out
Re: New site crashes IE7
Sounds like possibly the issue is when IE7 is checking the site for updates which IE is set to do automatically if memory serves.
Re: New site crashes IE7
well at least I solved it!

Why don't you give GreenBrowser a try? It uses the Internet Explorer engine with low resources consumption and a lot of useful features.rodger123 wrote:same problem again-locks up my browser then if I close it and reopen it it does not crash!Thought I had the promlem fixed,oh well I guess I will have

How much installed RAM do you have exactly?
Re: New site crashes IE7
Actually I am using avant browser and I have 512megs of ram,tried greenbrowser and dont like it,avant does not use that much ram.
Re: New site crashes IE7
