Dont use IE?

No, seriously, i dont know what people see in that crap-browser.
Btw, do you have the latest flash players installed? It might be caused by crappy flash support.

Indeed, try installing the latest Flash (9 I think). Or perhaps when you know you are going to visit the site then disable flash?

Or better yet install and use Opera.

IE7 does work fine with the ads - (im using it atm to post this). they are just simple flash ad codes, nothing complex in them that would crash a standard browser like IE7.

must be something wrong on the system, or something else conflicting.

If I was able to not use IE I would be using opera!
blegh

It happens when I sit on the site for a good time. The thing that throws me off is it will cause ff to crash too. Only when I sit on the site for say 30 minutes without activity.

system problem.....

an annoying one at that....

try uninstalling the FLASH player (add remove programs) and maybe get rid of anything else that might be on IE7

If all else fails, use the "safe mode" IE7 and see if it still happens (this should stop the add-ons from starting)

don't jump to quickly, i've seen instances where i thought an addon was causing a problem and it ended up being some weird issue with IE7 specifically.

let IE7 with no addons sit on DH and see what happens.

I like to clicky the adverts when I get bored hah.

Ill live with it and do some testing. If i figure something out i'll post back. I just thought maybe someone had the same thing. The dumb thing is it only happens when the site sits for extended periods of time.

That sounds like some kind of memory leak. I honestly tested this today, I tend to use Opera most of the time, but after reading this I fired up IE7 in both Windows XP and Vista, surfed DH for a good 30 minutes and left the browser running on the forum index. that was 4 hours ago. hasn't crashed yet.
