Encountered a neat error message in Internet Explorer while developing one of our new sites:

Internet Explorer cannot open the site: http://www.yoursite.com.
Operation aborted

After much frustration, turns out it’s a conflict between SWFObject and Lightbox 2. Explanation is available here.

In short, you just need to add the

defer=”defer”

attribute to the SWFObject <script> tag… Beautiful!
