Browser keeps crashing

Post by dsa2591 »

I tried to keep track of what sites it crashes on, but there is no pattern. Every once in awhile, it just crashes. Version 5 never crashed for me. I have Windows Vista Home Premium and the only add-ons I have are Ad-Thwart and Shareaholic.

I write online, and I sometimes lose time because it crashes just when I'm uploading something or before I can save it into a web form. Very annoying. I get between 1 and 4 crashes a day now, depending on what i"m doing.

Still crashing regularly. Thought it had something to do with a Twitter desktop app I usually have running, but it doesn't. It seems to be related to flash and Adobe air. Anytime I have either of these things running, a flash site or an app that uses Adobe Air, it is more likely to crash. Crashes are purely at random, though, no rhyme or reason. I don't want to go back to version 5, and I know you'll fix this, so I'm going to hang in there.

It would be nice if you could somehow construct something like what FF has, where all your tabs come back after a crash. It's annoying to lose everything. I was working on a rather lengthy post on a forum when it crashed this time.

Hey man,I was having crash issues when I first downloaded Iron for about a week and could never figure it out.....I did everything from uninstalling all extensions to reinstalling and running Iron in Default setting.. I finnally fixed it myself....It is not the build or the code.It is the !!!! Especially Shockwave Flash and or Java plugins.Go to your onmibar when you have Iron up and running and type about:plugins and hit start.A menu screen will come up and show what Iron has intalled.You may have to update some or just disable some like I did.Disable everything and go from there to find out what's stable.I also have program memory program I use to regulate Iron's RAM, that may help.After I did that and eventually updated everything it is now rock solid.No more crashes!!! Yea!!
