Some members are saying that they're getting the error Stack Overflow at line: 9; what could this be coming from?

Trying to, but hopefully someone else has seen this before.

Stack Overflow occurs when something is trying to do too much in any given area of memory at any given time. Put it anoher way the call stack in the local machine cannot handle the amount of data coming in. My first thought is to contact your host as the fault could be in the RAM their end but if it is affecting only one member the likelihood is the problem is on his/her machine.

The solution is usually to clear all browsing history and cookies, then run a cleaner (CCleaner and Eusing as very good and both free) then flush the resolver cache ...

Start > Run > type cmd in the box : this opens a command line (DOS) screen

At the prompt type   ipconfig /release

ipconfig /flushdns

ipconfig /renew

exit (which closes the box)

Let us know what happens :)

Most common cause for this AFAIK, would be a javascript that IE can't handle properly (I've mostly seen this error in IE). Can happen at times without real problems in the code, but if it happens all the time, then something is probably off somewhere.

I found out it was caused by a javascript installed  by the facebook connect mod.
