Internet Explorer (IE) 8 Deadlock

Christian Donner, January 11, 2010January 29, 2010

I frequently run into this very annoying bug in IE. I configured the browser to ask before writing cookies of unknown sites. When I hit a site that has both a Javascript error and a cookie warning popping up, there is a deadlock situation, since neither of the dialog boxes responds to input. The only way to get out of this is to kill the browser in Task Manager. My Google searches for IE, deadlock, cookie, error, and any combinations thereof, did not reveal much. Is it just me?

    Hi Donner,

    It is not just you, it happens to me too. This is a hideous bug that should have been detected by MS in the development stage. This is a clear indication of regression and unreliable testing procedures.
