I have tried this thing for 5 times on my laptop and each time it resulted in the crash of IE 8 RC1
Please can anyone just confirm this.
This was my original settings which led to the crash
Opened 4 tabs in IE 8 RC1
First tab is the orkut login page- http://orkut.com
second tab is http://blogs.msdn.com/chrisfie/archive/2008/12/17/announcing-the-release-of-the-december-cumulative-update-for-project-and-project-server-2007.aspx
third tab is http://blogs.msdn.com/virtualearth/archive/2008/12/16/the-north-pole-a-virtual-earth-christmas-experience.aspx
and the fourth one was again the orkut login page
Opened the latest version of Windows Live Writer
Copied the heading of the blogpost of the third tab(virtual earth blog)
paste it in Windows live writer heading menu(using ctrl+v)
now see whether the IE 8 RC1 crashes or not
