IE11 crashes when dragging the scrollbar #6

When you try to scroll by dragging the scrollbar the browser will crash. Holding the background of the div/body does work.

Interesting. I don't have access to IE11 right now, but I'm soon about to buy a new laptop.

In which way does IE11 crash? Does the whole browser close and die and all your tabs are gone? Or is it Utterscroll's tab that freezes, or closes, or "It's dead Jim" like in Chrome, or what happens?

I'm thinking it's not impossible that this is something Microsoft is interested in. Javascript crashing the browser.

Hi again — I do have access to IE 11, on this old laptop, I just noticed, version 11.0.9600. I'm at work now but hopefully I can have a look into this issue later today or during the weekend. Thanks anyway for reporting it

The browser only crashes when you use you mousedown on the browser-scrollbar.But It does really crash the browser: utterscroll-issue

I was unable to reproduce this. (Windows 7, IE 11 v. 11.0.9600.17501, update v. 11.0.15.)

Thanks for explaining what happens for you b.t.w., and for the screenshots. You don't happen to have any plugins installed that might cause the crash?

I did notice another bug however: Utterscroll starts scrolling when I click the scrollbar in IE 11. It isn't supposed to start scrolling when one uses the scrollbars :-(    (issue created)
