Still crashing Internet Explorer 7. Surely this is a pretty major problem for flash player to be able to do this? Has anyone else seen this? Is it because I have a debug version of flash player?
When I look in the Event Viewer I get this log: Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 7.0.5730.11, faulting module fldbg9b.ocx, version 9.0.28.0, fault address 0x001b5063. --- In [email protected], "beecee1977" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks for the reply Tom, > > I just have this on a 1 second timer: > > public function timerHandler(event:TimerEvent):void { > time = getTimer() > totmem = flash.system.System.totalMemory; > maxmem = Math.max(maxmem, totmem); > } > > I understand that garbage collection doesn't run until it's needed > to, but what's causing the memory to go up when there is nothing > happening?
