Christine -
I know people are attached to their browsers, but maybe you should try Google Chrome? Pages are going to get more complex (not that I think that is a good idea in itself) and I personally believe the trend is going to be more towards Ajax/JavaScript and away from other RIA platforms like Flash and MS Silverlight. Chrome is reckoned to be about 20 times faster than Internet Explorer at executing JavaScript (Google's figures!). And, oh - I hate to say this - all of my IE crashes went away when I removed the Google Toolbar. It may not have been the toolbar's fault, but of course all of these plug-ins can interact with each other.
