I tried to visit a bunch of sites yesterday that I read daily. I kept getting an IE dialog box of “Windows cannot open the Internet site http://www.____.com operation aborted”
I found one site which was working that just happened to mention the problem. It seemed that sites runnning Sitemeter were crashing when accessed via IE7. I rememebered that I had Sitemeter on my Cafepress store. I checked my store and that too was crashing with the same error.
I removed sitemeter (fortunately it wasn’t crashing the admin portion). As soon as I removed it, my store was again working in IE7.
So, if you are running sitemeter, check your site with IE7. If it crashed, yank the sitemeter.
