mySpace crashes

dpm

This isn't much info to go by, but it's all I got. I constantly crash [out
of whatever Browser I'm using, not the whole system] when I go to my mySpace
page. Once in a while it works OK but most of the time it crashes right
after I log in. I have tried it using Firefox, IE 7.0 and Avant. When I use
my other computer using XP, it works fine so I pretty much think it's
something to do with Vista. I am using Vista Home Premium service pack 1 but
it did it before I loaded the service pack [I was actually hoping that would
fix it - silly me]. It also crashes sometimes when I'm on a site that loads
a lot of pictures. I thought it might be the flash player but uploaded the
latest version and still no luck. Again, using my older system with XP, no
problems. Does this ring any bells with anyone or can someone point me in a
direction to try? It's really really annoying. TIA.

Yes, you should report your issues to mySpace technical support/webmaster
team.

I know this group is vonuntary support and everyone is trying to help here
and I really apreciate people trying to help other people but it's really
frustrating to pose a question and get it passed off without an answer [even
a 'nope, no one has ever had that problem with Vista, or 'hey try this'. [of
course I've checked with mySpace and they, of course, say everything is
working fine on their end [and based on my XP machine working fine, it
really is] and must be in my system. As per my post, everything works fine
in XP and as I said, it's not just mySpace - "It also crashes sometimes when
I'm on a site that loads a lot of pictures." Can someone please try and
answer my actual question? I would really really appreciate it - I'm not
trying to be difficult. Does it ring any bells with anyone else using
Vista??? Anyone have the same problem??? Can anyone suggest what might cause
my browsers to creash like that only when I'm using Vista??? I've deleted
and reinstalled Flash, Java and my Browsers. Please excuse my frustration
but that's why I'm posting to a Vista group because it really appears to be
a Vista problem. Thanks.

So what's the fault bucket data:
http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#bucket
according to the Problem Reports and Solutions control panel?

Note that this isn't an official actual support forum -
http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#netiquette
so expectations should be very low at best. =\ Debugging these kinds of
issues can take all kinds of expertise and strange esoteric knowledge -
there's a reason why good/great troubleshooting isn't usually free. =\
