We had several reports this morning of a widespread internet outage for those using Microsoft Internet Explorer to access any website that uses the Site Meter, Sitemeter.com tracking codes. There has been no word from Site Meter as of yet but this outage seems to stem from the sitemeter code itself. Users who use Firefox, Safari and other browsers seem to be ok, but IE users are having their browsers crash. Below is an image of the Internet Explorer error that is popping up on internet users screens when accessing a site using sitemeter.com:
Currently the only known was to fix this from a webmasters point of view is to remove sitemeter for the time being. If you are an internet surfer then simply block the *.sitemeter url for now.
