Microsoft states on their Mac information for Internet Explorer that, if you let your computer go to sleep with IE up your computer will crash. the workaround is to close down the IE program before allowing your computer to sleep automatically or putting it to sleep manually. Might this be contributing to your problem. I myself just had to double the memory allocation for IE, because it likes to freeze my machine quite regularly. I have loads of memory though so this is not a problem to me. IE sure isd a memory hog. Donna Pointer-- iMac, ergo iAm
