Script errors are messages originated from debugging different programming language scripts, usually the most commons are JavaScript errors. Although most of the times script errors will show up while trying to load a page, there are some times that software running in the background will try to access domain, ports or protocols causing this errors to appear.
Script errors can commonly be caused by missing libraries or also by misconfiguration on Internet Explorer, which is main browser of the operating system (scripts will run most of the time with IE if they are ran automatically). If you receive a script error with your browser closed, pointing to Amazon website or file, with the extension .js then you are facing a JavaScript error.
