Shame they didn't do a breakdown to show what caused the crashes.
I know I can get IE10 to crash on demand, but not sure whether it's a browser issue or website issue. For example the drop down boxes on the Anandtech website will cause IE to crash every single time.
Here's an example, go to the following Samsung SSD review page, scroll to the bottom of the first page article content (underneath the gallery pics, but before the comments section) and select another page from the drop-down menu. IE10 Desktop will crash every single time and log a MSHTML.dll APPCRASH fault.
AnandTech | Samsung SSD 840 EVO Review: 120GB, 250GB, 500GB, 750GB & 1TB Models Tested
I have tried all the pages on that dropdown menu, not a single crash, using IE10
That's odd, as it's always crashed with me on both laptop and desktop since installing Windows 8 last year. It crashes and logs the following:
Event 1000, Application Error
Faulting application name: iexplore.exe, version: 10.0.9200.16660
Faulting module name: MSHTML.dll, version: 10.0.9200.16660
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\MSHTML.dll
I just assumed the guys monitoring Windows Error Reporting were a bit slow, but as it doesn't happen to you I decided to have a quick play and I've just realised it only happens if I have Enhanced Protected Mode switched on (Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Enable Enhanced Protection Mode). Oh well, maybe it will be fixed when Windows 8.1 is released.
