BAD ASP

Anybody out there know a download that will help solve this:

I keep getting runtime errors and the prompt asks if I would like to debug. I say yes and it takes me to a dialogue box that shows an error line and a continue or break option. I press continue and nothing happens. I press break and a line appears and then nothing happens. I then press cancel and it asks me if I want to stop debugging. I don't know if I am debugging because nothing happens. This is on my work computer and its becoming a real pain in the ****. I googled run time error debug and there are a number of free downloads to assist but I am wary of which are useful and which are disasters.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

So you want to debug a program that crashes? Free download, Microsoft Visual Studio Express. Then again, I don't know how much good it will do you to debug it. What software is it that crashes?

Great question Sami. What are you doing when you get debug errors.

which programs are you running that's causing trouble? IE?? i would start by downloading the latest drivers first from MicroSoft..

Sami

If you don't know what application it is, look into 'Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Event Viewer' and select 'Application'. You will see the crash there as an error.

I simply ignore and click no. You'll have no idea what to debug. IMO

I am a contractor viewing plans and specifications, it happens when I open pdf files mostly.

thanks for responding y'all.

You might try uninstalling Adobe and reinstalling the latest version....

Or if your trying to view the pdf's within a browser and its causing problems just right click and save the file to your computer and open it that way

If the errors are not solved by updating Adobe, I would suggest running memory diagnostics on your computer.

I was reluctant to uninstall / reinstall adobe but I took the suggestion and did it. This seems to have solved the problem.......at least for now. Thanks again..all

In Internet Explorer click tools, Internet options, Advanced Tab, and then check 'Disable script debugging' in both IE and 'other' apps.

bdaley- that did the trick, thanks.
Hopefully debugging "turn off" doesn't store bugs in my computer eventually shutting it down.
