I read a lot of stuff on the web, but only three (now two) computer magazines - PC World, CNET and PC Magazine.

PC Magazine ALWAYS causes a hard reboot! That is, I am looking at a window in IE7 and the entire XP PRO system reboots . . . black screen time. There is no consistency to the event - it can happen on the Home page, it can happen with 8 tabs loading for reading. It can even happen when I am looking at another website with PCM tabs open.

NO OTHER WEBSITE CAUSES THIS - thanks to Tech Support Forum I have an otherwise stable browser.

Any ideas? They've lost a reader, but it's not a bad magazine!
