I've run into this a lot in the past, in IE6, & to a lesser extent IE7, using jQuery's document.ready function. It wasn't happening consistently & I never put in the time to make a test page. I was adding a lot of functions for DOM-modification plugins (rounded corners plugin, jtip, jcarousel, etc) & the Operation Aborted error seemed to be caused by all the DOM modification going on.
I think this is the root cause: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/927917 In the end I hacked a lame fix together by changing jQuery's document.ready behavior - It seemed from my testing that in the situation where IE was displaying a cached page, the "script defer" trick that jQuery uses for the IE document.ready handling fired too early, before the DOM was really ready, although it wasn't consistent. Commenting out the line for the script defer IE handling did the trick - the way jQuery is written (or was in 1.1.2, haven't checked newer versions), document.ready defaults to the window.onload event if no other event triggers it sooner. I haven't worked on any projects where this would have been an issue lately. My solution a bad fix that I don't recommend, but I couldn't find anything else.
