Anyone having "memory" problem at gw site?

Yeah at the main site whenever I close out of it or try to leave it it locks up that tab of www.guildwars.com for maybe a min and then says out of memory at line 114 or something. Something wrong on my side or theirs?

Yes i always get an error box too

Using Internet Explorer? No surprise then :P

stop using IE, and use firefox.

What so great about this "FireFox" thing?

Its a good browser that dosnt add adware and spyware to your system. anyone with half a brain should have it.

Any site with a bit more JavaScript, Flash, whatever, will kill IE. Any other browser besides IE can handle it. Wait, IE's not even a browser

All your FUD aside, the GW site has a bug in it that manifests itself on IE 7 (for sure), that bug needs to be fixed, telling people to switch browsers is like telling people who dont get enough gold drops to go farm in WoW then.

It's not a bug that manifests itself on IE7, the bug is IE7 itself.

"From a Web 2.0 application developers perspective (developers who use a lot of JavaScript and DOM manipulation), IE 6 is plagued by a number of well known problems such as its ability to readily leak memory. Regrettably, Microsoft's next release of Internet Explorer, IE 7, does little to resolve these issues."

I'm a developer as well and you won't believe the amount of time it takes, using various hacks, to make sure IE6/7 doesn't burn and die. Microsoft never follows standards, and that's exactly the kind of stuff that happens when they try to write their own standards.

Besides, IE is just a masked file browser, you know, the default thing in Windows. Hell, the desktop itself is the same thing. And you never know which build/update of IE is going to be broken. There's a huge difference in builds, some things get fixed, others broken. It's not the job of the developers to follow every single build of IE that comes out, and make appropriate fixes (read hacks), for each one of those builds, considering 99% of all other browsers work flawlessly, regardless of version.

Nobody's telling people to "switch" browsers... more like get ONE.

That's kinda mean, the half brain thing. I mean 78% of market share is still Internet explorer. Source Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_web_browsers
But yeah my cousin does use firefox and it's becoming popular. I think I'll research a little bit more on it. Although only the Guild Wars site is giving me problems. No others and it was just recently that this error started.

Not really given that problem is probably from IE itself.
It's pretty much inferior in every way. So, yeah, telling them to get another browser does help and will no doubt prevent future problems.
