I keep getting crashes when I load my site in IE, but I've no idea why. If I choose the option to restore the page then it will generally work, but the next link I click will crash IE.

How can I tell if this is something that lots of people are seeing, and how can I start tracking down the problem?

It could be a number of problems, it may be specific to a version of IE. I tried it here on Vista/IE8 without getting a problem.

It could also be related to just your browser, locally; do you have any browser plug-ins installed that could be causing the problem? anything relating to web development & testing thats integrated into IE? It could be related to Flash in some way, have you got the Flash development environment installed on your machine? maybe theres a version mismatch there between the plug-in and the environment.

If you've got some javascript written into your web site also check this out, what you think looks like a crashing website might just be some busy javascript stuck in a loop.

Tracking down the problem requires lots of helpful people like me to check the website on their computers, to see if the problem is just you or more widespread ;-)

Thanks Phill. I've got IE8 with the developer toolbar installed natively, but it is also crashing IE6, 7, 8 in Microsoft's standard Virtual PC images. I don't develop in IE or flash, so I don't have any other tools installed.It's reassuring at least that it's not happening to you!
