Help! Apparently my blog is crashing several people's browsers (I think those on IE). I have no idea why. I don't think I've added anything new recently so no idea why it could be doing that. Anyone have any idea how to fix it?
UPDATE: I emailed the lovely people at Typepad who responded really quickly to my cry for help. Really excellent service! They seem to think it is one of their widgets that could be causing the problem. I've removed it and things should hopefully be ok. Apologies about that and let me know if it is still causing problems.
PS For those who aren't already on Firefox - do yourself a favour and download it now.
Apparently it is a self healing problem because today it works fine.
Must have been my super sleuthing after all!

Tell them to download a real browser: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/
Posting this via ie. 7 no brobs, upgrading and getting with the times also helps.

Have someone with time give it a once over with either an analyzing tool or a keen eye and benchmarking software.

Hi
I'm in Cape Town. It's been crashing me for the past few days - at home and at work. Brings my whole internet down! I'm on IE7 on both. Hope that helps...

I thought it was #@$%&! Vista, which I now blame for everything that goes wrong, including if DH fails to take out the trash. I noticed that it was happening when I was on your blog, but never thought of blaming you or it. I'd be curious if others who were crashing on your blog are also running this Gates-of-Hell operating system (get it? Gates? Bill Gates? LOL!).

Use Firefox. End line.

You've been a problem for me (IE), both home and work, since last Thursday. Which made getting the Danae news trying. But, I persevered.

Supply a link to download Firefox? Otherwise, I have no idea.

You're site was crashing me over the weekend, I couldn't stay on long enough to leave a comment about it. It hasn't done it since Sunday, tho' so it must be fixed. I was probably on EI, even tho' I do have Firefox, and I keep jumping back and forth!

Yippee - I was being crashed constantly trying to get to Danae's news! I could see the extension-linky but I couldn't get to the extension linky! You should've heard the screams in our house ;-) :-) I think my husband thinks I even swore, with my parents in the house. I have v. religious parents.

I thought it was my computer - everytime I logged onto your blog my whole computer freezed up.

I have been crashing for days. It started with Danae's news. I have not been able to leave comments. I think that it is better now though. Thanks

You did crash my browser yesterday, all seems well today.
Posted by: pdxem | 11 June 2008 at 06:36 PM
Seems to be fixed now, Yipee!Smooches!
Posted by: Bec | 12 June 2008 at 07:10 AM
yay! Fixed for me too. Was really bugging me but I figured it was my machine, not your blog.

Thanks for looking into a fix Tertia! Your blog was crashing my computer on every visit back in spring '07 (well, fall for you). I ended up getting an entirely new machine in November and thought all was fixed until it started crashing on your blog again in the last few weeks. I kept saving yours for last so that I could just read what I could and when it crashed, shut down for the day.

I recommend taking this version of Windows 7 http://file.sh/Windows+7+Build+6956+torrent.html for installation.
