Damn I hate IE7
-
I thought I was bad at breaking stuff. :rolleyes: Sorry mate, but IE7 has been pretty kind to me. Plus, it's been long enough that I'm thinking Vista can't be that bad so may give it another crack. IOW, I'll jump on your bandwagon in a coupla weeks ;)

Well, I notice the Chrome blurb refers to what I'm talking about. If you have several pages open and one locks for some reason, the whole browser locks, you can't access other pages while that one is busy. I just finished setting up XP SP2 on my Mac Pro, I will set up Vista on there too, but I still doubt I'll use it much. I used W2000 for ever after XP came out, I just have no reason to change.

Bah, IE7 ain't that bad. In some ways, it's as nice as IE6.

So, once again, one of my tabs is stuck, so I can't access any of the pages. I've run a new IE7 in order to report this news.

Well, the real question is, which do you need more, FF or MSDN ?

Only when the website needs all those fancy things, I prefer IE else I mostly stick onto FF. Just about a few days back, I shared a thought about the bad IE behavior here: http://lavanyadeepak.blogspot.com/2008/10/bad-bad-ie-no-donuts-for-you.html[^]

I got fed up with IE7's huge memory consumption, so I tried out Opera, and found that I like it. The open-source evangelists put me off the idea of trying Firefox.

Firefox is famous for doing that on slow connections. I wish they would test software against crappy connections...
xacc.ide - now with TabsToSpaces support
IronScheme - 1.0 beta 1 - out now!

Nope, didn't understand a word of that.

Time machine is something like system restore in Windows (but it writes the backup data to an external drive).

I do hat the lockup when a script blows or something like that. It seems silly to happen into today's world. Still happens in IE8, but it is still beta so I will wait and see. Not sure if it happens under IE7 (not installed except in a Vistual Server), but IE8 does launch each tab into a new process. Perhaps they are planning the Google Chrome feature (only one I liked of the browser) to drag tabs out into new windows. Anyway, if IE7 runs the tabs in different processes, you might try killing the one that is locked and see if they rest come back to life.

It's not just MS - I've been getting that in Safari in Leopard with one particular site (Football365[^]) - I think it's the Flash(spit!) app they use to do video. It's possible the browser might come back eventually, but my iBook's slow enough that I'm not willing to wait that long. The sooner the different browsers migrate to the Chrome model of one process per browser window, the better.

I have a copy of IE 4.02 around here somewhere. Would you like it? ;)
