It would have been interesting to have had a look at Task Manager before the crash.

Internot Exploder sucks at the best of times, but with 38 windows open that's just crazy!

Welcome to the 21st century and the joys of tabbed browsing  ;)

It should have been a single process, but no guarantees.

Unless you need to use firefox, I'd stick with some variant of ie6. It pains me to say it, but there are less security flaws in ie6 than in firefox (taking statistics of security related patches released in last 18 months).  Firefox also is less likely to render pages correctly (like it or not, all web pages are tested and designed for ie.

However, if you use Linux, you're stuck with FF, as everything else is rubbish...

Sure. Ronnie was accused of doing a botch job of replacing the rear indicator bulb on project no. MCVVVXI, i.e. using a cheap non-branded bulb in order to get it through the MOT and then flog it on eBay to an unsuspecting buyer who would expect the bulb to last 1 Trillion miles, but instead it will peel-off after a mere 1 Billion, Ronnie said that the guy should have his head examined (well something to this affect anyway), then AA found the original manufacture’s MTBF which proved that the bulb WILL eventually peel off, though it won’t matter much because it will happen just after the next Ice Age, but TheBoy stepped-in and banned everyone forever. On appeal, the ban was overruled by Laidback and all the relevant posts were removed without trace. So there, that’s what happened. Really.
