It happens when a function recursively calls another function too often.

Like this:

_f()

Func _f()
    _f()
EndFunc

i know what it is.... but that's the function that broke... and it's part of ie.au3 ...

Need a reproducer.

You'll likely need to change/optimize your code and treat this as a limitation.

You can avoid the error, but lose the internal error handling functionality by defining your own error handler and breaking the rule you'll see in the description of _IEErrorHandlerRegister()

$oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error","MyErrFunc")

AutoIt only supports one function registered to AutoIt.Error at a time. If you apply _IEErrorHandlerRegister() it replaces your script's other error handler.

Edit: See correction from Dale below.

AutoIt only supports one function registered to AutoIt.Error at a time. If you apply _IEErrorHandlerRegister() it replaces your script's other error handler.

To be precise, _IEErrorHandlerRegister can only get instantiated with a user error handler if the variable assigned to the user handler is $oIEErrorHandler. If it is not, the IE.au3 error handler bales out and does not set its own handler.
