IE hangs when browsing Codeguru

hey Abhishek i think oply myself getting this Propblem .but Dude From last 4 to 5 days when ever i tried Something Codeguru it goes hang.

Thanx

Now my browser (IE6) always hang up when opening the codeguru site. :( As of the moment I'm using mozilla. I hope this problem gets fixed. :(

:eek: after posting my last message mozilla hang up too :confused:

Hello Brad!,

Can anything be done? It is miserable browsing CG today. My home PC might have got infected with some worms (not sure, will run a complete scan soon) but the office one is perfectly fine. IE 6.0.2900.2180 (XP service pack 2). I open two pages User CP in both and both hanged quite a few times. I don't have the flash player installed too.. but still. No upgrades recently. I wonder what has changed.

It doesn't let me work at all. Also, due to this the "Last Post" functionality is even not working. When I write a reply and the window hangs - I am not able to retrieve what I had written earlier...

I lost a number of posts due to this. It is frustrating to lose your posts like this.. and they were very nicely written... I don't have the tempo of writing the same thing again and hence did not...

Please help us with this, if possible. :)

Best regards!

Also, I cannot get Mozilla/Firefox/Netscape/Opera or any other browser installed... I "have to" work with IE...

Abhishek Just 2 hour back i Instaled FireFoc on my System and it's Working Proper.if you want you can gave a try to this.

thanx

I can't browse codeguru today.. sorry.. I will be quitting now... :( Leave posting replies.. I cannot even browse without a hang/frozen IE window..

Note : This is not happening when browsing other sites and it has to be the AMD add that comes on the right side of the page and at the bottom of it when in the User Control Panel.

Signing off...

I've asked Joe to again look at this. If nothing is determined today, then I'll elevate this to higher powers within the company to see what can be done.

For those of you getting crashes -- what add-ins do you have within your browser?

Brad!

It would also help to have the system specs of those who are getting crashes. I have seen CPU spikes while the ad is running, but I can't reproduce any hanging or crashes.

I have seen the crashes and IE freezes too (mostly crashes), and I'm pretty certain that it can happen even if there's only one CG window open.

I use IE 6.0. At home, the OS is XP Pro SP2; at work, it's NT Pro. Both systems are 3 gHz Pentiums with 1 gig RAM.

I'm also pretty certain that it's the ad.

At work, IE will freeze for extended periods, like 2-3 minutes. Eventually it wil re-waken, but sometimes I get the OS_generated dialog that states "this application has encountered an error and must be terminated...do you want to send an error report".

At home, IE does not freeze. But since I have Visual Studio on my home system, VS starts up and indicates the IE has faulted in "FLASH9.OCX" (I'll double check for the exact fault next time it happens). That's why I think it's the ad.

That's comparable to my system here, and I can't even get a hang, let alone a crash. There has to be some conflict of software going on. Can you check the version of flash player you're using?

At work, Macromedia Flash Player 7.0 r19, version 7,0,19,0

Ok, that's one difference, I'm running 9. Anyone else who is seeing the hangups want to tell us which version of flash they have loaded? Thanks

Flash9.ocx - in IE7 Beta 2 (build 7.0.5384.4).

Earlier I had problems accessing codeguru again. But now everything seems to be fine. What I did was, I removed the cookies for codeguru and I logged back in. So far no more IE hang ups. :D

btw I have IE v6.0 and flash 8,0,22,0 installed.
