			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Several have reported problems reaching our site.  After searching the Internet for potential issues it looks like this may be related to Internet Explorer (&#8221;IE&#8221;) upgrades and/or the proper rendering of flash related to certain versions of the flash plugins keep flash from being rendered correctly in IE version 8 (IE8) and sometimes in IE version 7 (IE7).  Therefore I removed most of the &#8220;features&#8221; from the site that use Flash.  I&#8217;ve also learned (thanks to google) that IE8 has issues that can cause not only the program to crash but the entire computer when certain sites are reached.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve change our site so that when someone reaches it, it will be &#8220;rendered&#8221; in the &#8220;old&#8221; IE7 method by using the wordpress plugin <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/comment/http://www.mstrum.com/onmywaytokorea/2009/02/28/ie7-compatibility-plugin-10-for-wordpress/');" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mstrum.com/onmywaytokorea/2009/02/28/ie7-compatibility-plugin-10-for-wordpress/">IE7 Compatibility Plugin 1.0</a> on this site.</p>
<p>If you have IE version 8 (IE8) (the latest and &#8220;greatest&#8221;) and are experiencing such crashes at other sites check out this link.  <a href="http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/02/26/force-ie8-to-load-and-display-websites-in-ie7-compatibility-view-mode/" target="_blank">Force IE8 To Load and Display Websites in IE7 Compatibility View Mode</a>.</p>
<p>Finally, I recommend to folks on Window PCs (non-Macs) to consider using Firefox.  It&#8217;s available for download at <a href="http://getfirefox.com/" target="_blank">http://getfirefox.com</a>.  I&#8217;ve used it for years and find it more stable and secure than Internet Explorer, and due to all of the available free &#8220;add ons&#8221; can provide greater functionality that IE7 or IE8.</p>
<p>Finally, if you are STILL having trouble with our site, my apologies (although I realize that if you are reading this, you&#8217;re not having troubles right now, but in case the troubles are intermittent or those without troubles can forward you this I&#8217;m putting this up here.)  If you would please email the following information when it happens, I may be able to solve the issue:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1. Approximate date and time it happened.<br />
 2. What Operating System (OS) you are using (e.g. Windows Vista, Windows XP, Mac OS 10, etc) (if you know)<br />
 3. What browser you are using (I&#8217;m assuming Internet Explorer if it&#8217;s crashing).  To find the version of Internet Explorer it can be found under the &#8220;Help&#8221; menu at the top of the browser.  Go to the &#8220;About Internet Explorer&#8221; and select it.  A window should pop up that tells you what version of IE you are using.  I just need the first number (e.g. 6, 7, or 8).  Don&#8217;t worry about the plethora of numbers after it.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Kirk</p>
