The failure in mmc appeared identical to the freeze problems I have
experienced in IE7 and which I have seen reported also by others.
I have tried my IE7 with all non-certified add-ons disabled, I have replaced
those add-ons that was indicated suspicious and I have eventually succeeded
in isolating the problem to occur only when I have one particular Norwegian
web page active in my IE7. However, the freeze is not predictable, it is
very sporadic and all I can tell so far is that it has never occurred unless
that particular web-page was addressed.
Coincidence? I don't believe so. Error on that web page? Maybe, but then why
did it not show up before November 5th. and why did suddenly similar reports
start popping up from several other users? No, I don't accept this
coincidence either.
I have no information that there was any change to this web-page that could
account for the freeze in my IE7 and I have every reason to believe that
other people reporting freezes in IE7 has never addressed this page.
Excuse me if I have misunderstood something, but I have the impression that
the one test I am reluctant to try is to eliminate all add-ons to IE7,
certified as well as non-certified, and see if the problem is still there.
My IE7 complained immediately when I tried anything in that direction and I
see little value in trying to run IE7 for several days or even weeks in a
crippled version that I cannot use anyway.
What I am trying to do now is to investigate on my own and report any piece
of information that could be used to build up a pattern in the hope that
eventually some cause could be identified.
My configuration and operating mode is such that I have full confidence in
my protection against malware. This includes trusting Microsoft, and unless
somebody convinces me otherwise I have full trust that no malware has been
received from Microsoft with their regular updates to my system.
