Microsoft had added a new functionality named tab “hang” reporting to the Internet Explorer, which comes with recently released Windows 7 RC (Yes, only for Windows 7).

IE8

According to ZDNet, the new tab-responsiveness feature in the IE 8 in the Windows 7 RC is designed to provide Microsoft — and users — with more feedback when a tab fails to open. Instead of whirring endlessly, leaving users wondering whether a Web site is down; not working with IE 8’s default standards mode; or what, a new tab dialog box is designed to pop up, allowing users to shut down proactively an unresponsive tab.

This feature uses a timer to detect when a Web page has become unresponsive. On low performance computers or on computers under high load conditions, the time-out value is frequently exceeded. Therefore, you frequently receive the error message that is described in the Symptoms section.

 

Today Microsoft released an update that turns off the additional tab hang reporting in Windows 7 Release Candidate.
