Recently I’ve been a bit puzzled as to why when using CRM inside internet explorer on my laptop, IE would freeze for around 30 seconds when trying to view a list of accounts or contacts.
After such a freeze, IE and CRM would come back to life and work perfectly.
The problem lies in the new version of Skype which includes a very natty IE plugin that will scrap the screen for phone numbers and allow you to directly dial out.
As you can imagine, a list of 250 (my personal preference) accounts or contacts each with one or more phone numbers on the list was a little too much of a feast for the plug in and caused it to hang and eventually crash silently before IE would come back to life.
More interesting is that I disabled the plugin through the plugin manager in IE7 and it was still causing the issue. Only after a full uninstall did the issue go away.
