Well Tar Aldarion has said above he suffers the odd time too, its not EVERY time I write something long or overly quoted, just every once and awhile.
It doesn't actually crash; rather it freezes and you can't do anything with the open window, and within the window goes totally white and fills with whatever you are running over it eg wordpad, ms word, a picture, whatever.
I use firefox alot recently but I tried to use it there the last day and it now won't open. I click on it and nothing happens, even after a restart. The issue doesn't happen on FF alright, but until I get time to uninstall and reinstall, and especially at work, it kinda annoying when ya do have a really long message written...will save in wordpad next time

Why don't you try and troubleshoot the problem instead of just ****ing moaning about it, and asking someone - who's time is already limited - to fix it for you?
**** sake.
Thats worth a ban cause my auntie used to be a catholic before she died and would not have tolerated this type of language

As opposed to who else for telephones and electricity, precisely?

Is fine with javascript disabled (boards seems noticeably quicker with it off too ). Having a quick look through the relevant script files the problem seems to be in function stripcode (vbulletin_global.js), which is called by function validate message (same file) which is called by validatepost (vbulletin_stdedit.js) which is called by the onsubmit trigger of the reply form.
stripcode takes a parameter stripquotes which if true leads into 2 while loops, using regular expressions and the strings replace function to remove [quote tags.
Without being able to modify the code and experiment (and to be honest, it's nearly quitting time), I'm guessing that if the message is too long the 'replace' function is falling over, leaving [quote tags in and menaing the while loops condition remains true. Or else that path isn't intended to be used in IE in the first place, I can't actually find where stripquotes is being set to true, when the function above is calling stripcode, it uses a variable ignorequotechars which I can find being set to 0 but can't see it being set to 1.0 -

I honestly dont know what to say. I was always told, if you have nothing nice to say, then dont say anything at all. So I wont start ripping into you for your valid opinions no matter how strongly I disagree with them .
If you want to use MS products, then by all means dont let anyone stop you. You are wrong in a few points though, as already stated, the Windows OS is the most expensive componant in the computers system, and MS were not responsible for driving down the cost of the computer system, competition was. Microsoft is not the industry leader, there is no specific leader as such, but in each market there are dominant companies. Microsoft has the desktop OS market cornered, the browser market almost cornerd and that wont be the case in the next few years as Firefoxes market share is growing faster then the chinese economy. UNIX has the server market cornered with 90% of web servers running some varient of UNIX, I may be wrong my this is just a guesstimate. Eircom is the most expensive land line operator in europe with the highest cost of line rental, calls and low broadband rollout makes them the most inefficient ISP as well.
Anyway, I have never had a problem using this site, but guess what, I use Firefox 1.50 -
