Internet Explorer and "Operation Aborted" - July 2009

The ongoing problem with Internet Explorer issuing "Operation Aborted", when loading various blogs, diminished in intensity recently. It has not, however, completely vanished.

You may see the latest reports of this problem, in a consolidated feed.

If you are experiencing this symptom - either in a blog which you control, or a blog which someone else controls - help us to help you. Provide your observations, for everybody.
  • What browser version (the complete version number of format "n.n.nnnn.nn" may be significant here) are you using?
  • What operating system (again, name and version, please) are you using?
  • In what blogs(s) have you observed the problem?
  • Is that your blog(s), and if so, did you see an improvement by removing the Follower / Friend Connect gadgets? By changing the comment form option? By removing any other gadgets?
  • Have you made any separate effort to diagnose your problem?

Your report here, of what you are seeing or have seen, may be invaluable.

MS IE 8.0.6001.18702
XP SP2 with all updates
I have absolutely no issues with system stability but I can crash the MS tab always when I visit danericselliottwaves.blogspot.com, almost always kennystechnicalanalysisblog.blogspot.com and sometimes uidezine.blogspot.com. One of the blog owners knew that this a blogger problem, so I found this site. Hope you can achieve something...
Thanks for your answer to my question! Really appreciate it.

Hi, I do have problems. At the moment, once I have posted, I try to view and then get that message. When I close, i am then unable to go back in as the message keeps coming back up. This is with my livinggreenandthrifty.blogspot.com Today megsthreads.blogspot.com seems to be alright, but last week, I was not even able to go in at all except into the dashboard. I did get an email from someone saying that they were able to access ok but when they looked through a few posts, then this message came up. I have Followers on both of these blogs. I haven't checked my other blog, bymegspen.blogspot.com I don't know what it is that I have done. I have the same issues with Firefox and IE8.
Thanks for listening. I will give you any other info as I come across.
Cheers, Meg

OK, now I think that I may have sorted out what is really going on. I have removed the "followers" gadget from both of those blogs and....I can get on! Hurrah! I think that it may well have something to do with it. I will wait & see now. I will do a test in a week or so & pop it back on & see if it happens again. Cheers, Meg

Embedded Comments And Main Page View

The option to display comments, embedded below the post, was made a blog option relatively recently. This was a long requested feature - and many bloggers added it to their blogs, as soon as the option was presented to us. Some blog owners like this feature so much, that they request it to be visible when the blog is opened, in main page view. I would like all comments, and the comment form, to be shown underneath the relevant post, automatically, for everyone to read without clicking on the number of comments link. And this is not how embedded comments work.

What's The URL Of My Blog?

We see the plea for help, periodically I need the URL of my blog, so I can give it to my friends. Help! Who's buried in Grant's Tomb, after all? No Chuck, be polite. OK, OK. The title of this blog is "The Real Blogger Status", and the title of this post is "What's The URL Of My Blog?".

With Following, Anonymous Followers Can't Be Blocked

As people become used to Blogger Following as just another tool to connect people, they start to think about the implications . And we see questions like How do I block someone who's been following my blog secretly? I couldn't see her in my Followers list (hence I couldn't use the "Block this user" link), but I have looked at her profile and could see that she's Following my blog. Following, when you look at the bottom line, is no more than a feed subscription and an icon (possibly) displayed on your blog, and linking back to the profile of the Follower in question. If someone Follows your blog anonymously, all that they get is a subscription to the blog feed. If you publish a feed from your blog, and if the feed is open to anybody (which, right now, is the case ), then it's open to everybody. If someone wants to use Following to subscribe to the feed, you can't stop this. You can't block it before, or after, the fact. You can't Block w
