Title: Periodic system freeze/crash
Post by: jddiamond on July 29, 2004, 07:30:51 AM

I'm running Windows 2000 Pro and lately any time I access a web page with a larger java script or flash it freezes my browser (both IE 6 and Mozilla). A few moments later, the whole system freezes and I need to reboot. Any suggestions? This just happened out of the blue; if anyone can help, I'd be appreciative and can supply further info.

• Virus scan
  
• Adware scan
  
• Trojan scan
  

I assume you have done all three of these?

Yes, I have. Sorry. I should have specified that I run those as a matter of course.

See if there are any updates you may have to install. I know very little about Javascript.
