IE7 Crashes

Hey is anybody else getting errors with IE7 and VE? For me it has started in the last 3 days and appears to be while downloading:

Not a lot more to add on this but the info bar consistantly says it is downloading the breakleft.gif file. This file does not exist if you simply navigate to it.

I have about 25 pins on the page, some with large content, i wonder if this is the problem. Its always a pain to debug intermintant bugs...

Has anyone experienced an IE7 restart while loading a VE map? I'm hoping it is simple something at my end.

Best I can tell you at this point, John: I haven't seen it, and we did a bunch of IE7 testing (as you might expect). If you can provide the URL to your page, I can take a look tomorrow at some point. I'll also pass the report on to the team to see if anyone else has found any issues.

Thanks,

Caleb

Cool thanks Caleb.

I suspect I'm doing something out of the ordinary.

I recently upgraded to IE7 on one of my PCs and about 1 out of three times IE7 crashes with an addressing exception when I close the IE7 window. The interesting thing is that Windows does not bring up the "Send Error Report to Microsoft" window when this happens. So how does one report these frequent failures of IE7 to Microsoft with data that would help the developers resolve the issue?

Yeah it is very annoying - funny thing is I only get the issue consistantly on my prod site and not on test (internet vs intranet). I will do some futher narrowing of the problem and get a link to Caleb asap. (ie is it polygons, pins, search etc or simply random)

Yes, I also get the same problem of IE7 crashing frequently when I try to close the IE screen.

Tony, can you provide more information? Is it on any VE map or you custom application?

My problem was I was making too many AJAX calls. I had to put some throttling in place (limit the calls per sec) and it solved the problem.
