Can't help but the same thing happens here; Firefox 3.6.6 locks up and
one of the i3 cores spins its wheels. I have seen this happen on other
pages occasionally and have usually concluded that it was a rogue script
problem. However the site comes up in konqueror in GNOME and a look at
the document source shows
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
which indicates standards compliance? A little later it shows:
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load("jquery", "1.4.2");
</script>
and further on it contains a check browser section covering IE6 to IE8,
but the if clauses are greyed out (starting with <!).
No idea if any of this is relevant. Maybe Firefox needs a plugin update
of some kind. Konqueror posts a number of complaints from kdecore about
missing Qt plugins and misnamed plugins but seems to be able to skip
over those and display the site OK.
