    Hi,
    I was having issues where IE8 was crashing for no reason, just came back as not responding and has too close. I figured updating to IE9 would hopefully fix the issue. Unfortunately it didn't. I found threads saying IE8 had an issue for some reason but no where did anyone explain this.

    Well I researched IE9 and per M$ site it explained there may be an add on issue. My only two non M$ add ons were Google and Java. In researching Java there was version 6 update 24 available but for some reason I was running version 22.

    Uninstalled Java and then downloded and reinstalled version 6 - update 24 after a reboot and now 2 days without an IE crash. I couldn't go 15 minutes without one before. :)

    Hopefully this will help others too....................
