Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / July 2007IE7 drop down menus crash browser
I've read about other people having this issue, but no one had a solution. I coded a page using VB.Net (.Net 1.1) and on all of my testing machines using IE6, everything works fine. I've tried 6 different machines running XP and IE7 and all of them crash when clicking on a drop down menu on the site. Its not the same menu each time, it seems to be random. I cannot find anything in the Event Viewer giving any info. I thought it might be a security issue so I moved the domain into the trusted sites for the systems but that did not resolve the issue. Any solution that I have found relates to Start++ and Vista. None of these systems are using Vista, all are running XP Pro. These drop down lists are not set to Auto-Post back. Any ideas? -E UPDATE: The problem happens on the 2nd click of the drop down menu and I can recreate it consistently using this method. If I click the text in the menu to expand it and then click the down arrow, the browser will crash (close without warning and without any kind of alert). If I reverse the clicking sequence, (arrow and then text) the result is the same. All of the affected machines are similar HP laptops. I've tried it on a Toshiba laptop and the problem does not exist there. It may be something related to their video drivers so I will pursue that as well. But if anyone has any suggestions at all, please let me know. Thanks! -E > I've read about other people having this issue, but no one had a > solution.

The end result was that after removing HP Security Credential Manager and HP Protect Tools Security Manager, the problem went away. Strangely this issue was only on sites hosted on a particular server. Other sites generated using the same code and hosted on a different server did not have this issue. I don't understand the root cause but at least now the problem has been resolved. -E > UPDATE: > [quoted text clipped - 30 lines] > > - Show quoted text - |
