    I assume you're using Firefox... I tried all of the advice from Mozilla & it did not work, but tried this & it did:

    In Firefox, type about:config in the address bar & press Enter.

    Type dom.max_script_run_time in the Search box.

    Double-click the entry & change it to a higher number (it was set to 10 so I set it to 99999999 to stop Firefox annoying me every time I debug).

    I expect it would popup after a long wait, but it allows more time. This will probably allow other scripting errors to continue, but using Tab Mix's Session Manager I can just end the process when necessary, restart Firefox and close the offending page before it loads.

    Edit: I used a higher number for a while, but eventually started getting 'A script on this page may be busy' errors. You might need to lower the value if this happens.

    Thanks Mr Oz. I've been searching for weeks for a solution to my problem - and obviously that of many others - shockwave freezes with both IE and Firefox and this is the first suggestion that has worked even though my problem isn't exactly the same as the leif1234. Fingers crossed that it doesn't come back. It won't have solved the problem in IE but I usually use Firefox anyway.

    Glad it helped. I kept having other problems and in the end I had to use Internet Explorer for debugging Flash. If you are not debugging Flash you can set dom.max_script_run_time to a much lower number. Since I am not debugging with Firefox I now have it set to 20 and have only had the error message a couple of times. Using this setting should still let Firefox prevent other scripting problems.

    If you are using the Flash Player debugger version, adding this line to mms.cfg or mm.cfg file should suppress other ActionScript error messages:

    SuppressDebuggerExceptionDialogs=1

    mms.cfg is a sytem-wide configuration file in Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash and/or Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folders.

    mm.cfg is a user-local configuration file file directly inside your user folder. You should have at least one of these.
