Plugging Internet Explorer's Leaks

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the finger-in-the-dike dept.

jgwebber writes "If you're developing DHTML web apps, you probably already know first-hand that Internet Explorer has horrendous memory leak issues. You can't not run on IE, so you've got to find a way to plug those leaks. So I've created a tool to help you find them. So until Microsoft decides to fix its browser architecture (ha!), at least we can keep it from blowing huge amounts of memory."

  1. Eliminate cybercrime. Eliminate MSIE. by rice_burners_suck · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I have a better idea. There should be a worldwide law that states that all websites must make every effort possible to crash MSIE, but run well on all other browsers. The reasoning is that by eliminating MSIE, much of the risk associated with cybercrime will disappear with it.
