   Hello,

   I have found that recently I am experiencing Browser Crashes in IE versions 6, 7 and 8. (though 6 is not meant to be a supported browser for the site) - Other browsers (FF, Chrome, Safari) are okay.

   The following link. http://www.keepbritainbiking.com/blog
   Seems to cause IE browsers to crash (Either on first page load or Refresh) - to note that this has been fine for the past 4 months, and the crashes seem to be a recent occurrence.

   I have checked the site using Y-slow and Firebug on FFox noticed a few JS scripts that take a little bit of time to load.. but nothing to cause a crash.

   I am just looking for some assistance as When the browser itself crashes, there doesn't seem to be a log of what cause the problem.

   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

   For whatever this is worth. IE has always been troublesome to web designers since day one. The good news is that fewer and fewer people are using it to browse anything these days. Drop it and forget it.

   hm, seems like the client likes to copy/paste from Word.
   I've just fixed that issue.

   Thankyou for your help so far

   Sorry, I wish that was the case, unfortunately the client put IE 7+ on the Requirements List.

   This problem stumps me as when the site was originally launched, there were no crashing issues, they seem recent.

   (Bear in mind, I have taken over this project from another developer)
