I have have discovered that this error is not unique to the number of files I
am linking. It has been reported from several of my users that there is a
similar issue with Internet Explorer 8.
Step 1: Import shared data into history: One user tried to import data from a
shared library into her history. Internet Explorer puts up an ugly message
“Stop running this script?” Complaining that continuing to run the script will
cause her machine to stop functioning. Sometimes the display seemed to get
truncated, only displaying a subset of the available datasets. The import
seemed to work OK, though.
Step 2: Debug the issue using IE built-in script debugger. I was able to
replicate the issue and ran some minor debugging from within IE. The results
of this are as follows:
Error Message: Windows Internet Explorer
Stop running this script?
A script on this page is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly.
If it continues to run, your computer might become unresponsive.

jQuery, MooTools or Prototype needs to be loaded before jStorage!
I cannot replicate this with other browsers. I have tried it with Google Crome
and Firefox 3.6.20.
