Internet Explorer Registry Settings

Javascript Pop Up - Script causing browser to run slowly

Sometimes Internet Explorer will produce a pop up dialog while javascript is running that says "A script on this page is causing your web browser to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer might become unresponsive." If this happens it will interrupt your script. A simple registry change will prevent this from happening.

EMUE has a built in tool that will allow you to quickly make this change.

Instructions:

From the Tools menu, click on the "Launch Web Installation Helper" option.

This opens up a window that will automatically update the registry.

Clicking the Apply button will make the update and display a green check mark indicating a success. Clicking OK will make the change and close the window.
