Sorry to hear of the crashes.
We aren't able to duplicate the problem here. Is the problem intermittent? If so, you might have just been unfortunate in that you happened to be viewing FT at times when we were having technical issues. In other words, it's very possible the issue isn't linked to IE 7 at all.
If it happens again, please take note of the procedure you performed immediately prior to the crash and send me a message or post in this thread.
