    Yeah the big videos play here on this page (they don't launch in a new window).

    I am using Firefox 3.5.5, but until this afternoon was using Internet Explorer 7 and now have 8. The issue is essentially the same, but appears slightly differently as instead of the browser completely closing when trying to navigate to a problem page, the tab will wait a little and then go back to the page I was viewing before, with a message saying that the tab crashed & re-opened (so I still can't actually get anywhere because I keep ending up back at the same page).

    I tried the older Direct3D viewer, and it did let me view my synth, but again navigating away from there caused the same fault - so it must be a silverlight problem.

    And unfortunately no, I don't get any specific error messages - not even the "not responding" or "end programme" messages I would usually get if a programme crashed. The browser closes just as it would if I had closed it, except it happens automatically!

    I'll try in the silverlight forums :)

    It doesn't just crash on pages with synths on them, it crashes on almost all of the pages. I do have Silverlight 3 installed: the browser crashes on both of the silverlight web-pages you listed, and crashes on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th videos (the first video and last two play alright).

    What do you suggest?
    And thanks for helping me with this :)

    Why does photosynth keep closing my browser??
    I downloaded photosynth yesterday, but most navigating on the website causes my browser to automatically close - so I can't get very far (I've managed to create a synth, but I can't view it). I've tried using Firefox and Internet Explorer, but I get the same problem. I'm using an XP Pro laptop machine. Any suggestions as to how to stop this (because I really like the idea of photosynth!)???

    Why does Spotify keep becoming non-responsive??
    For the last day or two, Spotify will play one song and then stop playing automatically and become non-responsive, so to play another song I need to end programme and re-start Spotify. Is this a common bug and what should I do to make it work again? I'm really missing Spotify! Thanks!!
