IE hangs with drawmap.php

Nobody has any hint? This is a real blocker for us!

We tested the whole thing on some more machines and found some that did not show the problem - although the version of IE was identical.

Hi All
Can anybody tell why Internet Explorer (version 5 and 6) hangs with some images produced from drawmap.php?
With Firefox everything is fine. However when I call the same URL in IE the browser hangs completely, consuming most of my CPU and freezing the whole system after some minutes!
This happens only at certain map extents or scales. I tried changing the output format options in chameleon.xml as well as in the mapfile. The only effect was that other map extents caused the problem. I found no configuration that worked for all situations.
I have copied and posted some of the images produced from drawmap.php below. However when I call the saved images with their extension even IE manages to display them.

Hi Uli,

The only trouble I have seen with IE was to do with sessions and using IFRAME's.
The two don't mix very well and you have to be extra careful in this situation. Otherwise
I can't help you as I don't use IE! (or MS Windows) :)
