Cause

This issue occurs because of a resource leak in Internet Explorer 8. When you browse websites that trigger this resource leak while the frame process is running, this issue occurs.

Note By default, the Loosely Coupled Internet Explorer (LCIE) feature is enabled in Internet Explorer 8. When the LCIE feature is enabled, the frame process may continue to run until Windows is shut down or restarted.
