Some things you ADD can Mess your site up!

~
If you are a blogger it might be easy to add this and that to your blog page. It seems there is no end to the variety of little widgets and tools a blogger can add to their blog in order to make it pretty and count for something.

This morning I was happy I wasn't one of the website owners, or bloggers who came to find out that last night anyone with a sitemeter.com script of widget had been sucked into a situation where:

SiteMeter is bringing down every site where its counter code is loaded when the visiting browser is Internet Explorer versions 6.0 and 7.0. The error may also affect Internet Explorer 5.5


It appears that the first reports about this BIG problem were made by One Project Closer

If you use a Sitemeter.com script on your website or blog I would recommend reading the Blog Post HERE there is not only some great information about the problem but, also many of the comments offer some specific details about some of the things other Webmasters and Bloggers are noticing and doing in order to deal with this problem...

This is just another thing that comes with being part of the Wild West!
