IE8 - No threads showing apart from index page

Stuck IE8 on work PC (Win XP) Now can't see any posts or threads apart from on the main page. I'm getting errors referring to adtech.de on the information bar on the bottom of IE.

Webpage error details

I've tried clearing cookies, cache, logging out, but nada seems to resolve. Only thing I can do is use an unsupported browser at work (Chrome) to browse and post.

EDIT: Changing my skin seemed to sort it. Most peculiar.

Peculiar indeed. It looks to be something strange happening in one of our ad slots.

Can you advise what skin you were on when you had the problem?

Star Wars.

Ah. Given that you're probably the only person using the Star Wars theme in IE8 on XP I'm afraid this is going to be a low priority issue... If you experience it on another theme let us know and we'll investigate further.
