    Hi Alex,
    Thank you for your nextgen slideshow. I am using your nextgen widget slideshow on my blog, and very happy with it. I am using Firefox on my computer, and never really test it in IE. I just recently open in IE8, and the slideshow kept loading and never open.
    If I stop and reload again, it works.

    I been reading on some posting that have somewhat similar issues, but couldn't get any solution.

    I second the motion. It works the first time in IE8, but not if you go back to the page. When I put it into the header then as soon as you click on another page the gallery just freezes.

    Any solution to this?

    I upgraded to the latest version http://alexrabe.de/2010/12/05/nextgen-gallery-v1-7-0-rc-1/ which fixed this problem, but now some of the iames are squished - tall and thin - in IE8 only. Dang.

    I think I can help your. I had a very similar problem, slideshow work in IE only for the first time, but when I reload page or follow by link - the loading animation is just shown, like in your case.

    But I found some site, where slideshow work fine in IE8, so I analyzed the code and find the differences in versions of this file:
    _____________NextGEN V1.7.4(installed on my site)___________________
    <script type='text/javascript' src='http://interra.kg69design.com/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/js/ngg.slideshow.min.js?ver=1.05'></script>
    __________and NextGEN (Unknown version) (some site)_________________
    <script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.rau-autowood.com/blogs/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/js/ngg.slideshow.min.js?ver=1.03'></script>

    As you can see, there is a difference: ver=1.05/ver=1.03, so I just download ngg.slideshow.min.js?ver=1.03 and replace ver=1.05.
    Problem solved.
