You waste my time!
Really. I gone to run a VM (Win 7 Pro) and installed IE10 just to see! And nothing happend!!!
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

It happens when you click on the topic title. On pretty much every topic title that is opened already.

It only happens to me on page 3. Any post on page 3 of the Lounge forum. I have my forum setting set to show 50 posts per page and if I change that to 25 per posts per page, the crashes happen on page 6.

Ah, there's the problem. IE is assuming that you're trying to reach the other page3, and is just protecting you.

Why don't you use another explorer!

I cannot speak for the OP, but I for one do not have another browser on my Windows Phone 8...
[Actually, there is something called UC browser, but it is weird]

So, I've not posted forever. I am about to embark on a new endeavour, and thought I should share it here. After five years working for the company that bought mine, and eight or something working with my current boss, I am leaving, to work for a local company instead. I vacillated for a while, but eventually I was told that my job was on the line because our website is slow ( in heated terms ) and that was the last straw for me. Why ? Because I predicted this issue a year ago and fought to be allowed to work on a solution and was not allowed to. Although things are better, they still have four employees working on four different things, support asking the same questions over and over and taking up developers time, constantly shifting targets and 'urgent' deadlines that are never physically possible to meet, and the allure of working from home wasn't doing it for me any more. And I really didn't feel that Dallas was worth the time away from home, any more.
So, in to the wide blue wonder, I go.

Good to see you 'back in the fold' as it were. Keep us updated on how things work out. What type of technology will you be working with?
Yesterday marked my two-year anniversary at my current location, after almost 13 years at the previous one.... change can be stressful, but I have ZERO regrets about being here and told both my co-workers and boss that.

Well, I went for five jobs. One said they were looking for someone cheaper. One was working with SQL Server and a custom back end web server they wrote to escape ASP.NET. I said no to that one. Another is using WebSQL, HTML and js to write an app that you download, and it gets cached and runs in your mobile browser. I am doing part time work for them. The other two, one was a start up, really cool guys, working with face recognition in WPF. I really liked the idea of that one. The other is a big consulting firm, working the full Microsoft stack, doing custom work, visiting clients to work on site as well as in the office. That seemed the better career choice, esp as I've put a lot of time in to my SQL skills of late, so that's the one I took.

Well, that's part of it, actually. My network is becoming worse and worse, and while they told me twice they were updating the tower ( and gave me dates ), now they tell me they have no plans to update it. I had to not just stay where I was, but hire an office, if I wanted to keep this job.

*grin* is that a sig, or an example of what you hate ? I am looking forward to having developers for managers. When your manager does not equate what you do with black magic, it helps a lot. It means they know what is possible.

Have that situation now - and we can debate solutions:
We settle on the better of the two, a mixture, or something else altogether. Since he's arrived, I.T.'s moral has improved immeasurably and appreciation by the rest of the company has also increased tremendously. Maybe it's because we get things done.
Possibly the secret is that he still writes code obsessively -

Oh, we get things done. Just rarely do we get them done well, we're too busy trying to keep up with the deadlines.

Heh. It could be a .sig, given the number of times I've fought that battle here in the last couple months. I'm apparently now "that obstructionist guy who just says no all the time."
If you don't expect the guy with 35 years under his belt as a programmer to disagree with the head of sales ($boss-1), you're doing something wrong.
The problem with this particular PHB is that he knows a smattering of (hold your breath) WebDNA, so he thinks he's a master technologist.
I swear if I hear one more question that starts with "Why don't you just..." I'm going to flip my shrimp.

Cheers! And hopefully I'll soon be joining you there, i.e., I'm looking for a new gig too.

Enjoy! Sounds like the right move.
Me? I'm learning how to play the lyre. Not the Greek lyre, but like the instrument on the left in the pic on this page[^].

Don't want to compare my situation with yours but starting next August I think I am just going to take off for six months and see what may come of it. Maybe finish some ventures, who knows. Regardless of the way it turns out for me ... good luck for you. Sometimes small companies can be harder than larger ones.
