I don't question the symptoms that you're seeing, but trust me: jQuery may
be triggering the problem, but it isn't *causing* it. jQuery, and JavaScript
in general, simply doesn't have the kind of system access needed to cause a
crash of this sort. It has to be something along the lines I suggested -
either a hardware problem or a system-level software problem.

It wouldn't hurt to do a virus scan, but I would lean more toward a hardware
or device driver problem as the real cause.
