Last month I updated to Adobe Flash Player Plug-in Version 11.9.900.170 and shortly before that my Avast! updated it engine software as well. Ever since these two programs have updated, I have been experiencing a world of issues with Flash crashing websites.
Error message is "Internet Explorer encountered a problem and needs to close" then it tries to reopen the broken page in a new tab. Sometimes the tab reloads, sometimes it crashes / reloads indefinitely.
System Specs:
Win7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1
Intel Core i7-3770k CPU @ 3.50 GHz, 16 GB RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6670
I've gone through uninstalled IE back down to IE 9
Uninstalled/Reinstalled Adobe Flash Player/Shockwave, Java and Windows up-to-date, including my G930 headset and video card.
Still no luck with a resolution, I upgraded back to IE 10, and still experienced the same issue:
Error message is "Internet Explorer encountered a problem and needs to close" then it tries to reopen the broken page in a new tab. Sometimes the tab reloads, sometimes it crashes / reloads indefinitely.
Then I went through and disabled the avast! Online Security, I still received the same issues but not as often. With that I went into avast! Security Shield and disabled everything.
I have ran my system this way for 2 days now and have not experienced one IE crash or odd behavour with websites at all.
Could you please help me with this, I don't like having my system unprotected just to surf the web. BTW this does not happen in Firefox, only IE (all versions including IE 11).
Thank you
Sho
