Forgive me for posting this here, I'm not really sure where on the forum the best place is.
In the Reviews section, EVERY time I try to open and read the review on Journey Escape for the 2600, IE crashes on me.
This is the only place I can think off in all my web surfing in a year that does this to me.
I have IE 6 and use Win XP.
I'm guessing something in the review is causing the crash by trying to load something IE does'nt like.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any fixes, short of downloading a new browser? Who makes repairs on the website, anyway?

Do you have Quicktime installed? There's a music clip that plays using Quicktime music - maybe your browser settings don't like it and shut it down as a result? It should work fine in your setup.
Incidentally, the review is awesome. :D

I'm pretty sure I have Quicktime installed, but what's the link for the newest download just in case?

Okay, thanks. THAT did the trick. I know I had Quicktime installed allready, but maybe not the right thing -- I only use QT for pics, never for music. In any case, once the new version was installed the review loaded up.
Silly to have a music file in one of these things, anyway.....I never have my sound turned on when I'm reading. :)
But that review was......weird. Why is the author, who is male, talking about wearing a blouse and having a bossom? :hmm:

I'll be a little mouse and whisper, "sound clips that play in webpages are cheesy, and should be banned." That's not my decision to make, but I really think it detracts from the experience. Flash intros also suck, especially non-professional quality ones.

Remember: contest! LOL At the risk of speaking for Scott, I sense that's exactly what he was shooting for. Pure comedic brilliance. Scott rules.
