Re: Another IE questions

Klass,

Ten times a day is indeed excessive. I've never had IE crash on an NT system.
The fact that this phenomenon occurs on more than one system would suggest 
a common denominator. I would try the following to attempt to narrow down 
the problem:

1. Do the machines exhibiting the problem have the same hardware profile? 
If so, try installing on a machine that does not share any of the hardware 
characteristics of the offending systems.

2. Use fresh binaries for your IE/flash install. Use a different CD for 
your OS install, thus eliminating any possibility of a corrupt file.

3. Setup a new machine on a different network or better yet, as a stand-alone.

Let me know how it goes.

Good Luck!
Jeff
