Enabling the "Microsoft XML DOM Document" add-on in IE8 causes a stack overflow popup error on some page loads. Would anyone know why? It does not appear that leaving this add-on disabled has any impact on JavaScript-enabled sites. enter image description here

What does the stack look like? –  jeffamaphone Sep 1 '12 at 14:19
    
I wish I knew! IE8 developer tools (F12) suck, and there is no way to display a stack trace that I can tell. IE9, Chrome, and Firefox show no warnings or errors. You can see this error if you've got IE8 and go to www.vitacost.com and click around the top nav category menu items. –  Mark Richman Sep 1 '12 at 15:42
    
Is it a JavaScript stack that is overflowing, or a native stack? Your comment implies JavaScript, in which case I misunderstood and probably won't be much help. –  jeffamaphone Sep 1 '12 at 16:46
    
Yeah JS stack. IE8 isn't crashing. –  Mark Richman Sep 1 '12 at 20:06
