IE8 Beta2 JAVA exception Fault

[Retired Bill]

I get this consistantly on the Yahoo standard chess trying to close the java
chess boards. It has never happened using IE7.
Here's the details:
java.lang.NullPointerException: null pData

1) this ain't the place to be discussing IE8 beta problems!

2) try running the game in IE7 Compatibility mode.

Any issue is expected since IE8 is in Beta.
Post you issues with it to the IE8 Beta newsgroup since this is not the place to do it
