I have this on more than one machine now. Beyond, and only Beyond, crashes IE on a fairly regular basis. It's always after refreshing or hitting a link. IE completely freezes up and I have to end task.

Pretty odd and only in the combo of Vista and IE7.

Anyone else have this? I'm assuming it's the flash compontents in the ads or something but I haven't spent any longer than this post to figure it out as it's not that important.

Beyond has been crashing Firefox at home yet IE is fine at work. It happened last night with the Nissan ads.

Intermitent for me as well, it locks up on Vista w/ IE7 completely on my company notebook. My home notebooks both run Vista w/ IE7 and no probs. My home PC runs Vista w/ IE8 and it doesn't freeze either, just intermitently the tables draw kind of funny.

Mine's freezing intermitently on click of a link, a refresh of a page, or even as soon as i type in the link. It's freezing before the new pages loads, so I can't even see the ad on the new page.

It happened to me this morning. Since the lexus ad was removed it hasn't stopped.

I agree I am still getting lockups with the add removed.

As a matter of fact it locked up when I clicked the link in the thread, hows that for ironic.

Works fine in Linux except it's still logging me out all the time.

Vista and IE7 @ home, zero problems.

I had problems with Windows 2000, IE6 (same end task hang), upgraded Flash and it fixed the problem.

Try upgrading to the latest Flash.
