SDMB is crashing my computer!!

In my office, they just replaced my old desktop with an IBM ThinkPad. Ever since, at least twice a day, my computer has frozen while I’ve been scrolling down a thread on the message board. It completely freezes - I can’t use Ctrl-Alt-Del to get out, but have to turn my computer off and on.
I haven’t had this problem on other Web sites, although I admittedly spend more time here than on others. :wink:

As I’m actually supposed to be working, this isn’t really something I can bring up with the IT department here. Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions on what’s causing it/what I can do about it.

This has come up before here’s some threads with different things to try.

Poll: How often has your computer crashed in the last 40 hours of use?
Computer locks up
Now my wordpad is f*** up!

Thanks, omni. I’ll give them a try.
