I am getting browser crashing all the time. I installed it, opened a browser window, went to view->toolbars->Neowin Toolbar. That opened the toolbar. Then I noticed I keep getting errors when I open the browser that require the browser to shut down. Then I open another, and it continues. I had to turn the toolbar off for it to quit restarting. I think you have something wrong.

ah poopy :cry:

now my computer won't be total neowin :(

Well you can always just use IE for Neowin. ;) Personally, I think this toolbar is cool! (Y)

@chorpeac - You are the third person I know to say something about browser crashing. Though no one has figured out what is causing it (it's not the Toolbar... one guy was getting it on his homepage, the other, after IE was open for about 5 min).

Yeah it continued to happen. There are only like 3 people getting this problem? Hmmm....I am using it on my work computer. The only thing I have on here that I know may be slightly different is I am running the Google toolbar and Desktop search addins. Also, my IE titlebar says blah blah blah - Microsoft Internet Explorer provided by *company* where blah blah blah is the pages title and *company* is my companies name.

Would those do anything to make it fail?

It shouldn't. I know my friends started happening yesterday... and nothing has been able to help him. It's his home system and he hasn't done squat. So I don't know... I know he switched to Netscape temporarily until it starts working...

Is the same version that has been available in the past...

As for the crashes I really don't know what's wrong...

I need more information:

IE Version ( a picture with 'About Internet Explorer Version' is perfect)

What plugins for IE you have installed

And if you can please try this

enable only Neowin Toolbar, disable other toolbars and see what happens.

I think you'd get a broader use of this program if you got it to work with MyIE2, because a LOT of ppl use it including myself. Frantly i can go without your program if you don't support it in MyIE2 than rather switching back to IE. Even if you have to recode it to work or something, it would be a smart thing. Other programs work in both so obviously its possible. Just a idea. If you don't i'm not going to go out and find you or anything...

I left IE for MYIE2 because IE kept crashing. MYIE2 is much better than IE, imo.

I GUESS I'll survive w/o my Neowin toolbar...don't know how :cry:

I totally agree with you.

I've tried to work this out some time ago and I've spoke with the author of Avant Browser. It seems that Google Toolbar is supported by AB bacause of some 'engineering'. I don't think this will happen with Neowin Toolbar because it requiers (possible) a lot of work. I'm guessing is the same case with myIE.

However I'm trying something to resolve this issue... just be patient because I don't have much time on my hands right now...

Any plans to have it supporting user's visual styles as opposed to it standing out in a totally different colour?

I don't know about that. It's supposed to take its background , buttons and menus colors from IE/Windows.

Please post a picture with your toolbar so I can see what's all about...

Sure.

As you can see, the theme is blue but the toolbar is light gray. :wacko:
