This is some line of code which i have seen on localhost...This problem is not coming on localhost.
dgGrid.ItemStyle.VerticalAlign = VerticalAlign.Top;
dgGrid.HeaderStyle.Font.Bold = true;
dgGrid.DataBind();
dgGrid.RenderControl(hw);

// Write the HTML back to the browser.
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
Response.ContentEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("iso-8859-1");
this.EnableViewState = false;
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + FileName + ".xls;");
Response.Write(tw.ToString());
Response.End();
dggrid is a datagrid.

Does the error only occurs on IE10? Have you tried with other browsers?

Yes i have checked in firefox. Its working. Only problem is coming in IE 10 and 11.
This problem is coming sometime like sometime giving error message or sometime export to excel operation successfully exported the data into the excel sheet.
