Kernal Panic On 4 Day Old MPB

[griffo]

Today... I had a kernal panic. Off the top of my head I was running...

Coda
Firefox
IE6 (Using IE4OSX) <--- I think that was the problem
iChat
Adium
iTunes
MailPlane

There is no way that is too much for my 2.4GHz MBP.

Here it is...

Kernel panics aren't caused by 'overload' on your system.

The most likely culprit is badly written code, memory leaks and the suchlike.

By 'ie4mac' do you mean Microsoft's Internet Explorer for Mac, end of life'd in the stone age?

What an interesting little application. I use a web based app at work that is only compatible with IE, I'm going to have to give this a try.

Yeah, I'm in the process of debugging a website for IE 6. On my Windows partition I have IE7 so... Kind of have to use IE 4 OSX at the moment.

I'd keep to boot camp, parallels, vmware or crossover myself

Like I said... I have IE7 on my BootCamp partition.
