GUEST,Jpt Tech: BBC iplayer crashes my browser(s) (38) RE: Tech: BBC iplayer crashes my browser(s) 06 Apr 08


Iplayer worked on my IE and Firefox, but I'm beginning to wonder if it has some rogue programming in it.

Soon after installing the iplayer download software onto my home computer, my computer started to run slowly. I was watching a show via the iplayer and the computer crashed and the hard-drive died. End of that comp!

I installed iplayer onto my work computer, and again, after a a few weeks, the computer crashed and the hard drive died. End of comp 2.

Messages I received from both computers were Kernal Data Input Error and Page Fault errors.

I just watched a programme on iplayer on my laptop and towards the end of the programme, my computer crashed out and rebooted itself.

I think there is a problem with iplayer and I'm going to avoid it on my personal comps from now on where possible.
