Any idea what this is?

Knipples · 16-08-2009, 22:03

I keep getting (I say keep getting like maybe half a dozen times a day) this message pop up on my yahoo email page, it only happens when im reading/checking email but I have no idea what it is

A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

Script: http:// mail.yimg.com/d/combo?/mg/6_1_1/js/yui_utils.js&/mg/6_1_1/js/core.js&bc/bc_2.0.4.js&/mg/6_1_1/js/darla.js&/mg/6_1_1/js/async.js&/ult/ylc_1.9.js&/ mg/6_1_1/js/imboot.js&:1

I click on stop script, and tick the box thats there for "Do not show this message again" but it comes back again.

Does anyone have a clue what it might be?

Its still doing it, (only on yahoo) and im also now getting this message

"A script on this page has been stopped due to a low memory condition"

Try pressing Ctrl+F5. There some rogue JavaScript somewhere that is doing bad things. If not, clearing the browser's cache might sort it out.

How do I do that on FF? Am starting to think its a bug now cos some of my buttons have disappeared from the window, and it keeps closing the window when the low memory thing appears. Running all my scans now.

Which version? (they changed it all in 3.5)

I updated it recently (like in the last couple of weeks) when i try and open FF now, it stays open for a minute or so and then crashes. Am posting this on my phone.

If Firefox is your default browser, click Start, then right click on Firefox and select 'Firefox Safe Mode'. Does that stay open?

Its not crashed since I cleared the history, ran all my virus scans/spyware scans and restarted it.

Still getting the script thing on yahoo, but the low memory thing hasnt happened since I did all of the above.

So I dont have a bug or anything to worry about?
(scans arent showing anything up by the way)
