IE8 problem

I have turned off video monitoring in IE8 as promised here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17267&start=15#p40786
NO problem with IE for two months so far, no matter if my PC is heavily loaded or not.


1. Did you turn off just video monitoring for IE browser? I.e. had you been still using normal downloads monitoring in IE browser?

2. Sorry for this, but I have to ask you again about sending the crash dumps. Not one, but at least 3-5. This is required to improve a chance that the problem will be resolved quickly.

1. Yes, it's a problem only with video monitoring.
I suspect it's still the same problem with this dll from the very beninning. Long time ago the first versions of this dll just crashed IE8 when opening pages with flash. Now it seems thay only some remnants stay in memory and block IE from running main IE process - some kind of mutex, I suspect.

2. I will do some tests on a clean WIndows user account with default IE8 settings. It may take a week or more to gather dumps, if IE crashes depending on its settings.
