Sitemeter Crashing Sites When Viewed with IE7

Posted By Darren Rowse 2nd of August 2008 Blogging Tools and Services

Twitter is aflutter with blog owners wondering why their sites can’t be viewed at the moment and it seems that the commonality between them all is that they are running Sitemeter stats on their blogs and that they only seem to crash when viewed with IE7.

I’ve put an email into Sitemeter to get clarification on the problem but until it’s fixed the only way to have your blog viewed by IE7 seems to be removing Sitemeter’s code from your blog (as I’ve done here). It means your stats will be disrupted and inaccurate for today – but at least you’ll have everyone able to view your blog.

Will update when I hear more.

Update – Sitemeter have posted about the problem and say that they have resolved it on their blog. Read here for details.
