NS Keeps Crashing IE

I've been having a bit of an odd problem for today, not sure if it's at my end or what.

The spotlight on my nation keeps crashing my internet browser. I've done a virus scan, and there doesn't seem to be any problems on my end, but I'm not quite sure, as my aged PC has been having a bit of trouble over the last few days.

Is there anyway NS could be the source of the problem?

I just opened NationStates in IE 7(the horror! the horror!) and had no problems.

It's possible, but hardly likely if no changes have been made in NS recently. I have noticed some new ads on the top, though. It's possible that one of those ads is crashing your IE. If so, downloading the latest Adobe Shockwave plug-in might stop your crashes.

In the past, I have had trouble with NS when my security settings were too high. Specifically, I had the cookie setting high enough to reject the NS session cookie. It resulted in my crashing every time I tried to view an issue.

I've downloaded the latest Adobe thing, and it appears to have sorted out the problem.

Thanks for the help!

The lengths you mods will go to to try to help solve people's problems.:tongue:
